I don't think we currently have heavy serif fonts with an "old"
feeling in the distribution. Most serif fonts tend to be thin (except
for modern serif screen fonts, but they have a modern not oldish
design). You can try asking on the open font library mailing list,
some of the people there know their free/open fonts by heart, but they
are likely to suggest not-packaged fonts too :)
