This bug persists. On one laptop my gdm font size is normal (just like the gtk font size on apps), and on the other laptop, the font size is HUGE. I had to edit the .xml file to make that 12 a 7. Now, under normal circumstances that 7 would be really small. But it seems that GDM misenterprets the font sizes, under some circumstances.
I THINK that this happens IF the user tries out the accessiblity themes and then goes back to Human/Clearlooks. If the user just even tries once these big themes, from that point on GDM gets all messed up.
