Unfortunately our CMS writes two HTML comments before the DOCTYPE declaration
on each page, throwing IE into quirksmode. This means that the default text is
too large on IE and much too small on Firefox.
I don't understand that at all. There should be no difference in the
font size in IE6.0 and compliant browsers regardless of the doctype. Are
you sure you you are not in IE6.0 'accessibility' mode with "ignore
font sizes" checked? Are you sure text size "medium" is checked in IE6.0?
Quirks mode = IE5/5.5 emulation mode (bigger fonts):

He started off writing "I'm trying to get font sizing consistent
between IE6 and Firefox." What does your emulation mode thing that have
to do with IE6.0?
