Howdy,

That's very interesting. I just tried it and had no problem with either
version. Both versions weren't in bold until I added \boldmath. That worked
fine with CM, CMSuper, Latin Modern and Lucida Bright (expert) but Fourier
(even with expert Utopia) doesn't support bold math yet.

Good Luck,
