I noticed this as well - and apparently the screen dpi for the
font-rendering mechanism is being set to 50 for some reasons. I tried
a modified build, but it did not work. I looked at the source code of
the part of GNOME which does this, and they have a sane-dpi-value
enforcing mechanism, which may be kicking in. I'll try to go deeper
into this.
