Sigil 0.9.10 on OS X Mojave 10.14

I have been using Sigil on a Mac for several months. It has been working great - until now. Apple recommended that I upgrade the OS X Operating System to the latest, Mojave Version 10.14. So I did.

Now the rendering of bold fonts does not work in Sigil 0.9.10 for OS X. When the .epub is viewed with Kindle Previewer 3, the bold fonts are fine. The same file looks fine with Sigil 0.9.10 for Windows.

Have any of you guys seen this symptom? If so, do you know of a fix or work-around?

Thx, ~Randy

By the way, the symptom is very easily reproduced.

Just open a new Sigil file. Type in 'aaaa bbbb'. Select 'aaaa'. Select the Bold button. Notice that there is no bold text. The code view looks like this:

Code:
<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">aaaa</span> bbbb</p>

I've not seen it myself, but I see that Kovid has recently patched calibre's Qt to deal with font weight issues on Mojave. He's using Qt 5.6 like Sigil 0.9.10 does.

Kovid backported that official Qt patch. This fix appears in Qt 5.9.7 and Qt 5.12.
