gnome-terminal: no bold, no extending selection

[Sam Steingold <sds goems com>]

Package: gnome-terminal
Version: 1.0.4

bold doesn't work:
in bash:
PS1="(${tt})\[\033[7m\]\t\[\033[m\] \[\033[1m\]\u@\h:\w [\#]\\$\[\033[m\] "
the `bold' part (\u@\h:\w [\#]\\$) is shown normally (not bold)

Also, mouse3 still does not extend selection.
[this is bug 397, it was closed by the gnome-terminal author with
comment that it is about to be fixed]

Please note that I was not able to submit this bug to
submit@bugs.gnome.org.  I am getting the following:

No, I do ***NOT*** understand the above message.
Yes, I ***DID*** read http://bugs.gnome.org/Reporting.html.

Since gnome-list does not accept submissions from unsubscribed
addresses, I will have to subscribe to this voluminous list.
Poor me! :-)
