I was bemused that the Firefox folks have sort of the same knee-jerk presumption of guilt towards the gtk that some Ubuntu folks have towards the nVidia driver as the root cause of all display problems.

See also Bug 191791, where you'll find more reports and an interim solution. As noted, xdpyinfo (147x145) matches my display (1920x1200, 13"x8.25"). Gnome font preference is 96DPI. Changing layout.css.dpi to 96 resolves the problem.
