  I'm at a loss as to what's going on then, because the text is exactly the 
same size for me.  I just shaved one line off the bottom of the "bad" 
terminal, and now they're exactly the same size, and I can flip between the 
two images (e.g., in Firefox tabs) and see that the non-bold text is 
identical.
