Comment (by Andy Schmidt):

 Unfortunately, I am '''UNABLE to confirm'''. If the (equivalent) patch is
 applied to 4.9.1 (see screenshot of code), there is no difference in
 behavior. I reconfirmed (using browser network trace), that the updated
 Widgets.js is being served up.

 Oddly though, I do NOT find Widgets.js ever having being requested by the
 browser? I then checked the server's HTTP logs directly - and there too I
 see no HTTP request for Widgets.js having occurred?
