trisquel page rendering problem in IceCat not in Abrowser

The title and photos say it all. This happens in fullscreen and non-fullscreen and at normal, zoomed-in, and zoomed-out views

Any extension that may cause the problem?

Well, I completely removed icecat in synaptic and then reinstalled. That didn't work. I disabled all of the plugins. That didn't work. However, I've a had a more recent problem with icecat. When I type in a URL and hit Enter, icecat freezes and when I run top I see it is using over 100% (don't ask me how it can be more than 100%) of the CPU. After disabling all of the plugins, that problem seemed to go away.
The rendering problem is still there. It has been there for the entire time I've used Trisquel (several weeks). It occurred to me that, while it isn't ruining my day, I should probably straighten it out.

Solution:
Make sure that minimum font size is set to "none" which is the default. (Preferences --> Content --> Advanced)
This occurs whether "allow pages to choose their own fonts..." is checked or not.
Since I can zoom instead, and since I know to avoid this, this effect is hardly critical for me any more. Hopefully we'll get lots more people using Trisquel, which means there is a chance someone will make the same mistake I did.
Do you think there is a better way to handle this at the web programming level. If not, they can always look up this thread!
