Nope. Tassilo understood correctly. In the source code, you need (quote (quote
bold)), which evaluates to (quote bold). The point is that the face name needs
to be quoted in the result.
I suggested
`((,(concat "\\(?:[`]?" regex "['(]\\)") 1 'bold))
which is equivalent to using (quote (quote bold)) and which produces (quote
bold).
