It's not clear to me whether there is really a bug here, or if the reporter is just reacting to an inherent difference in how the fonts happen to rasterize at different pixel sizes. If anything, this would be a Graphics rather than Layout issue, though; things like font rasterization modes, hinting, antialiasing, gamma, etc., could affect the perceived "boldness" of the glyphs.
