After I'd been educated by one of my workmates here, I've come to
understand it is likely a reflow bug in firefox. changing the font size,
reloading, or resizing the window cause firefox to rerender the page. One
of the recommended fixes for this sort of thing he said was Ctrl -, Ctrl
0, and from our testing that caused every page to render correctly.
