You are right this is a duplicate of #760. The problem stated in the reopening of that bug is when using % for font size. The Dean Edwards trick doesn't work in that case but instead of returning the size of the font returns the number of pixels that percent would be on the actual screen (50% of a 1024 width screen would be 512 pixels and way bigger than the font size).
In any case, this is a dup and will be closed as such.
