The font detection & loading looks like it's working fine via our custom 
pdfontloader:

https://github.com/pure-data/pdfontloader 
<https://github.com/pure-data/pdfontloader>

The font on Windows and Linux has always been bold:

https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/blob/master/font/README.txt#L33 
<https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/blob/master/font/README.txt#L33>

What may have changed is how Tk calls the Windows API to do the rendering. I 
would ask more of a Windows dev about this (Christof, Lucarda, etc).

How does it look if you add "-font-weight normal" to the startup flags and 
restart Pd? To confirm, the using font line should the change to:

using font: DejaVu Sans Mono normal

Another thing to try: "-font-face Courier" then see if the rendering is better 
with a native font for the system. If so, this could indicate some issue or 
change with how we load a local TTF font file.
