Actually, there's deeper magic than that involved. In a recent release of
the unstable tree in debian, the /etc/X11/xinit/xserverrc file changed on me
which made all my fonts come up at 100dpi instead of the 75dpi that I'm
accustomed to. In my file, there was a line that looked like this:
exec X -dpi 100
I changed it to
exec X -dpi 75
and now at least my fonts aren't huge. One problem solved.
