That's not how backports are intended to WORK.  Every one is a special
snowflake.  You have to type "-t stretch-backports" (or analogous
repository selection option) on your command in order to get them.

If synaptic is pulling in *-backports without you manually DOING something
to select the backport over the standard version, then synaptic is
broken.  Broken-er.  More broken-er.
