Lato has incorrect font-weight declared as numbers instead of keywords for IE

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Download the css for the lato font on IE:
http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Lato:regular,regularitalic,bold,bolditali
c
2. Notice the font-weight is in numbers

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected output is that the font-weight declarations are using keywords 
"normal, bold".  Instead its declared as '400, 700'.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
This is replicable on all versions of IE, on Windows Vista SP1, and various 
other development machines around the office.

Please provide any additional information below.
How i've worked around this problem is simply create a version of the css on my 
servers and changed the font-weights myself. Luckily, Lato is also available at 
font squirrel (http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/lato) so thats an easy thing 
to do.

I do however want to leverage google's cdn so loading directly from google 
would be the preferred method.

Google font team is not taking care of it? Still we have this problem.
