No, the screenshots are labeled correctly. In attachment 479866 and in
attachment 479870, the text body is rendered using a rather ugly font, some
DejaVu variant, I guess.
Note the (Fedora) font used in the address bar which is very slim when the
bytecode interpreter is enabled. Unfortunately, the new user interface does not
allow in a straightforward manner to change hinting between "slight" and
"medium" which could be used to improve the rendering.
Freetype rendering of web core and Luxi fonts is sort of an eternal story as
underlined by bug 198082 which I reported back in 2006.
