Okay, I think what I'm seeing is that since upgrading to the 2.0 
versions of these applications, they're taking a font size that looks a 
few points higher than what's set in gtkrc-2.0. If I set the font down 
to Arial 10 in gtkrc-2.0 it looks about right in Firefox and 
Thunderbird, but then my other gtk2 apps have a font that's too small. 
If I set it to Arial 12 like I had it I get the ugly big fonts in FF and 
Thunderbird. I don't think it's my user settings; I tried a completely 
clean config in my guest account (all GTK, firefox, thunderbird, and KDE 
configs wiped) and still saw the same behavior.
