You could experiment with the other version and report back.  Is it 
bigger?  You have to use kernel modules and kernel compiled with the same 
version of gcc but I never heard of this affecting programs.  Some newer 
programs won't compile with older gcc.  I compile with gcc 2.95.3 from 
Slackware 8.1 or 3.4.6 from Slackware 11.

Do you get the error message about XftConfig?  If so, probably your fonts 
won't be what you think you selected.  There seem to be two fonts (at 
least with Xvesa) that are seemingly randomly assigned to the ones listed.
