Perhaps you could switch to a font in the Tree buffer where the bold chars have the same width as the unbolded ones? Gnus uses the same rules for highlighting the tree nodes as the thread display, so you can get rid of the boldness by fiddling with `gnus-summary-highlight'. > 2.

Hm... Gnus tries to recenter the tree buffer vertically and horizontally, but perhaps it gets confused when not all the chars have the same width? > 3.
