I installed the following debugging

index c4d2ef9d80..b1b3e4c397 100644

font = CALLN (Ffont_spec,
QCfamily, build_string (family),
QCsize, make_float (pango_units_to_double (size)),
and tried using the gtk selector (via M-x menu-set-font). I only have
one font installed that has both normal and medium variations "Nimbus
no9", so I tried that. And I got:
Weight: 400, symbol normal
Weight: 700, symbol bold
And, yes, the thing that's called Nimbus No9 Medium does look like a
bold in both the gtk selector and in Emacs. So I don't think I have a
proper font to experiment with... does anybody know of a font in Debian
Stable that has both varieties? SauceCodePro was the example in the
bug report, but that does not seem to be available here.
