The title of Konsole definitely doesn't look right, but I'm not sure I
would blame FreeType for that. It could be some KDE or Qt problem.

On my installation, Ubuntu Tweak Tool doesn't allow me to set Window
Font to "Ubuntu Bold 9". It simply switches to "Ubuntu Medium 9" and
makes window titles look regular, not bold. However, when I increase the
font size, it does make the title appear bold and it looks perfectly
fine to me (attaching the screenshot).

I also updated to Michael's PPA and tried installing Konsole - the fonts
still look OK.
