This is the definition of `font-lock-builtin-face'.  Which of these
cases is causing the confusion for you?

(defface font-lock-builtin-face
  '((((class grayscale) (background light)) (:foreground "LightGray" :weight bold))
    (((class grayscale) (background dark)) (:foreground "DimGray" :weight bold))
    (((class color) (min-colors 88) (background light)) (:foreground "MediumOrchid4"))
    (((class color) (min-colors 88) (background dark)) (:foreground "LightSteelBlue"))
    (((class color) (min-colors 16) (background light)) (:foreground "Orchid"))
    (((class color) (min-colors 16) (background dark)) (:foreground "LightSteelBlue"))
    (((class color) (min-colors 8)) (:foreground "blue" :weight bold))
    (t (:weight bold)))
