This morning, I played around with the minimals on my linux eeepc (had always used TeXLive, but saving some space seemed like a good idea) and got exactly the same problem: instead of bold, I get bold italic. If I typeset the same file with my TeXLive installation, I get proper bold. So Vasile is on to something here...
