All bugs should be fixed first in the main development release and back ported if appropriate. And in any case any targeting you see is purely what the manager-types are doing because of current rules that say a bug needs to be targeted to a release. It doesn't actually mean a thing here as I currently have no time to even consider this bug. I agree with the general premise that bold fonts should only be wider, not taller but I don't know the details of what is on the end of the various links you provide and I can't go grabbing code from somewhere else.
So step #1 would be for you to provide a patch I can consider under terms of the OCA against hg.openjdk.java/net/jdk9/client/jdk .. -phil.
