Summary:
Setting the font weight of a label (in a table view cell in my case) with system font does nothing.

Steps to Reproduce:
In a storyboard, set the font of a UILabel to "System Light 17.0".

Expected Results:
The font should be San Francisco UI Light.

Actual Results:
the font is:
<UICTFont: 0x7ffa39c647e0> font-family: ".SFUIText-Regular"; font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; font-size: 17.00pt

Regression:
Bug introduced in 9.0 beta 1.

Notes:
I tried various font weights including Light, Thin, Ultra Light, Medium. It does not matter what font weight is set in the storyboard. The label always uses .SFUIText-Regular.
