When I run `notify-send "Example" "text"` I get this notfification:
When I run `notify-send "Example" "$(cat example.file)"` I get this:
Note the missing bold text. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? I'm using libnotify 0.7.7 and Dunst 1.3.2.

Hm, that worked for me as well. I turned out to the be the content causing the issue. For some reason it doesn't work when the file contains the character "&".

That's being fixed in later versions, don't know why the maintainer for dunst doesn't release new ebuilds for it.
There are v1.4.0 and v1.4.1 available after 1.3.2
Anyway, I'm using 9999 version for a long time now, maybe you should give that one a try.
EDIT:
Ah I'm sorry, there's no 9999 version in the tree either, I made one long time ago so I forgot
in case you need it here it is:

Thank you! I made my own ebuild with version 1.4.1 and it works just fine now.

| Since the in-tree version has a known issue, and you got the newer version to work, you should consider submitting a bump request and the associated ebuild, so that other users can more readily get the good version. |
