If you have TrueType fonts defined in the "Files" section of
/etc/X11/XF86Config[-4] then it might help to put them last.

Also setting the "display resolution" in the fonts menu in mozilla
manually instead of system/automatic might help. Do restart mozilla
after that.

No idea *why* this would help but it works for me ..
