In <http://www.freebsd.org/layout/css/global.css> which
gets imported by <http://www.freebsd.org/layout/css/fixed.css>
the font-size is defined as 31% smaller than the user likes it:

body {
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
  font-family: verdana, sans-serif;
  font-size: 69%;
  color: #000;
  background: #fff url("../images/hdr_fill.png") repeat-x; 
}

BTW clicking "Text Size: large" doesn't work,
unless you enable JavaScript.
