So the test case here is basically:

(tooltip-show (propertize "foo" 'face 'error))

This was apparently fixed earlier this year in Emacs 28.  The code is
now:

          ;; Use non-nil APPEND argument below to avoid overriding any
          ;; faces used in our TEXT.  Among other things, this allows
          ;; tooltips to use the `help-key-binding' face used in
          ;; `substitute-command-keys' substitutions.
          (add-face-text-property 0 (length text) 'variable-pitch t text)

So I'm closing this bug report.  If this is still a problem (there's
some difference between different architectures), please respond to the
debbugs address and we'll reopen.
