Nobile displays Bold when Regular is specified on Mac 10.6 #16

This is likely related to the other Nobile on Mac issues, but I thought it 
deserved its own entry.

When viewed from  a Mac running 10.6, the bold version of Nobile is displayed 
even when the regular version is specified. This is true even on the GFD 
website as pictured below (Windows on the left, Mac on the right). 10.5 does 
not appear to exhibit this issue.

So since it's been almost two months since this problem suddenly appeared with 
no fix, change, or improvement of any kind, I'll assume that GFD is another 
example of Google abandonware. 

I guess I just don't understand why you bothered to go through the effort of 
negotiating with TypeKit and setting up all these resources just to abandon it 
less than a month later. Especially something like this that is so easily fixed.
