  I believe (but could be wrong) that both the gtk and gtk-v2 client basically 
use the standard system font - they are not going through extra hoops to mess 
with font size.

  That said, the default system font may very well not be usable on a low 
resolution screen.

  Note that a while back, I added theme support to the gtk-v2 client.  So using 
a different font may just be as simple as making a new theme with different font 
settings.
