I don't know if default OS X physical font size depends on resolution. I don't know whether it can be configured. I don't know how to get it programmatically (or if it's even possible). Easiest way is to change font sizes in darktable.gtkrc. It has already been done for OS X before DPI fix. But the question is which sizes (there are 2) to use? Can you guarantee they will always match system font size?
