Firefox4 ignores both the system DPI setting and its own preference
layout.css.dpi. Instead Firefox4 renders everything as if the
screen had 96DPI.

Here you can view the DPI used by your browser:

I have submitted a fix to bugzilla.mozilla.org:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=603880#c5

The patch can be dropped into www/firefox/files/ as is. I would
appreciate feedback.

Regards,
Kami
