Open Source strikes again. Henrik Berg ran into the same problem that you
did. He did some investigation, found the problem and sent us a quick fix
for it. It took 48 hours, significantly more time than it usually takes
Henrik to send us patches.

The problem was related to the use of "," vs "." in decimal calculations of
font sizes. To get the fix, you can either grab the latest source from
CVS, or wait for the next binary release. As you may know, AbiSource
releases binaries about every 4-8 weeks.
