Does the following reproduce the problem for you?

(progn
  (set-frame-font
   "-misc-fixed-normal-normal-normal--13-120-75-75-c-70-iso10646-1")
  (pop-to-buffer "*bold*")
  (insert "foo\n")
  (insert (propertize "foo\n" 'face 'bold)))

I don't have the font here on this system, so I can't test it.
