I found out by accident that the font is Monospace 10, so I put the
following line in my .vimrc
set guifont=Monospace\ 10
but I still get different fonts, I have attached a screenshot of two
gvim sessions, lhs is gvim7, rhs is gvim6.3, if you look at the bottom
of each window is sets the font as I have just executed :set guifont? in
each of the windows. They have both accessed and read the .vimrc it
would seem, so what is wrong?
Are those two vims built with same GUI libraries ? I suspect
that they are build with different GUIs.
Can you send first 4 lines out :version output from each of two vims ?

P.S. I remember that I had similar issue between one Qt-based
program and similar Xt-based program. I set same font for them two,
but they showed it rather differently. Maybe you'll want to rebuild
vim7 to use same GUI as your vim6.3. If you send first 4 lines from
both vims :version, we'll know which GUI they are both built with.
