That's weird. When I downloaded xdvik (from CVS), and compiled in subpixel 
rendering, all the characters were 1/3 too narrow. Most of my patch was 
specifically to correct that. Maybe you have a local change that fixes it 
as well as me?

I'm running on Debian Linux testing amd64, gcc 4.3.4, glibc 2.11.2
