Thanks, Randy. That was the prompt I needed to try moving my Galeon and
Mozilla prefs.js files and letting them get recreated - it turns out
that once I did that the problem vanished.
                                                                                
So - no one else need check this now!
                                                                                
Best, Darren

I don't think there's any need to post the whole output of diff -u (it's
very, very long). I can tell you what the most significant difference
is: the new prefs.js does not have a single line beginning
                                                                                
        user_pref("font.
                                                                                
in it.

Seems like it would be good if we could detect this condition and fix it.
