As Khaled mentioned, these fonts should be hidden in 5.3 (I believe with the resolution of bug 103514), yet the following bitmap fonts are still in the font list:
-Modern,
-Script.

A clean user profile for your 5.3 install? And, is there actually another TTF or OTF font by those names on system?

Oops, wait I'm seeing them also on Windows 10 Pro with

Getting some weird fallback in the Special Character dialog, and the font names is showing (not italicized) on the Toolbar formatting droplist.

Hmmm...
