I'm using Debian etch, with ttf-bitstream-vera installed. I installed Hans's Pd-0.39.3-extended-rc5-debian-stable-i386.deb package.
My resolution is 1400x1050, and I don't think I've done anything explicitly to set the DPI.

So it turns out that there is at least one person who has problems with the current Pd-extended font setup on GNU/Linux.
The only place that I have seen a problem is _only_ 12 point fonts and _only_ on some GNU/Linux machines. Everywhere else that I have tested (which is 25+ machines at this point) it works.
So in an effort to track down the source of this, I ask all y'all running Pd-extended on any flavor of GNU/Linux to post screenshots like this, with Pd launched from the command line so you can see the tk scaling value:

Also, it would be very useful to know which flavor of GNU/Linux you are running, which screen resolution, and whether you've set any kind of DPI setting. Please post the images on the web somewhere (like puredata.info) and I'll gather them from there.
Remember, you need to have Bitstream Vera Sans Mono installed and working for things to render correctly. It's included on most standard installs, but if you have a customized install, you should double-check that it's actually installed.
Fedora: yum install bitstream-vera-fonts Debian/Ubuntu: apt-get install ttf-bitstream-vera
