Bug in KF8 firmware for eInk Kindles?

I may have found a bug in the KF8 firmware on eInk Kindles. The only Kindle I have access to test is the Kindle Touch with the new 5.3.2 firmware.

The bug is that if I use serif as the name in the font-family definition, the Kindle does not display the embedded font. But, if I use a name such as "Charis SIL", then it works fine. Is this a bug or is serif a reserved name and should not be used?
