I assume by old version you mean rc1 (1.5.1). It didn't detect the right DPI at all (since OS X always reports it as 72) which screwed up other GUI things (like font size in bauhaus widgets). It was fixed since then and the change is unrelated to Retina. The way it looks now is the "correct" way, it matches how it's done on Linux. Changing the resolution of display shouldn't change the physical size (in mm) of fonts and widgets. Native apps probably get font size from some system preferences, we don't do that and I currently have no plans of adding such functionality (font size is fixed in our darktable.gtkrc).
