I did a new install recently, upgraded it to sid and I have it too. That is... the fonts Sans and Serif seem to point to the Nimbus font, which looks very ugly, and not Bitstream Vera or Dejavu. I haven't found out yet why and set all font preferences (in prefs.js) explicitly to the various Bitstream Vera fonts to solve it. This seems to be only a problem with Gecko and on all other workstations I have with Sid, it's fine.
