[cut list down] > cairo-1.8.8 > pango-1.26.2 > gtk+-2.18.5 Did you build this as an X11 build of GTK, or a native MacOSX build? (I presume from the fact you get an X11 icon, that it is the X11 build). I wonder about installing some of these requisites via something like fink, or macports. They might patch the code, or build with particular options. I initially thought that something "might" be mis-reporting the DPI of your screen, but then realised that since the fonts are not properly scaling with the objects on the page, that is not likely to be the issue. I'd consider cairo as the most likely suspect, but it could be pango, or gEDA its self causing issues. Anyone else on a comparable Mac OS X version, with success / failure stories?
