Many thanks, starting from this tip I indeed found the correct
solution.

Actually, what I needed is to override *all* faces for console mode,
with respect to what happens in the X11 world. I just followed your
suggestion, using "'default" as the font face instead of
"'font-lock-comment-face".

So, in the end, it was not a bug, I'm therefore closing the bug with
this post.

Cheers.
