But if there's going to be a 2.6.22, and if this is trivially reproducible on a fresh Mojave system (I don't _think_ there's anything unusual about my system, but who knows), it may be worth looking into.

Ah, that's a much more useful than the stuff my Google search turned up. Thanks!
Good news: I can change the fonts using that template. Bad news: I can't come up with any choices that aren't being turned into bold text (even some "Ultra Light" fonts). So it doesn't seem to be a font/resource issue.

Anyway, no big deal, I'll live with it for now.
