Your are a star sir!
That works for me, and also fixes all the other broken side-loaded fonts, regardless of locale. Have some freshly baked karma.
I think the Kobo 2.4.0 firmware looks for a font file in the following format:
Font Family Name-
Font Subfamily Name.ttf
Font Family Name must have the same spacing as in the font itself.
Font Subfamily Name is normally one of:
Bold
Italic
BoldItalic
Regular
You do not need a space in "BoldItalic", even if there is one in the font file ("Bold Italic").
.otf file extension is also supported.
Firmware 2.1.5 would find a matching font file even if there were no spaces in the file name but there were in the Font Family Name within the font. For some reason after 2.1.5 this was changed so that the spacing had to be the same for the font to be found.
Some of the built-in fonts are still broken e.g., Avenir and Kobo Nickel, presumably because the internal font file is actually called "KoboNickel-Regular.ttf" etc.
