You have two options: (1) restore -dpi 100 in Xservers, so that

what XFree detects is appropiate for your card, I think/it seems)
and change/tweak *once* the font-size for GTK apps, just as you did
in KDE.
I did some research and evidence suggested that XFree86 should be able to
calculate the resolution automatically, given the correct info.
It obviously wasn't able to pull the LCD display for this info via the
mechanism described in the manual.
So I took a ruler and manually measured the physical size of the LCD diplay
in millimeters and entered it into the monitor section of XF86Config-4
using the DisplaySize option.
This worked. XFree86 now correctly finds the dpi to be 96x96 dpi.
Thanks for the hints.

That's what I did. In fact, using DisplaySize is the most Correct (TM) way to
do it, since it gives you the true dpi of your monitor, and if you change
your resolution, X will still get the true new dpi of your monitor.
