Possible cause is Firefox on Windows supporting font-size-adjust? The fonts in
your reduction are Arial and Verdana. the latter has a much larger x-height
than the former, possibly causing the Arial text size to be scaled up to
compensate.
Another possible cause is Firefox not supporting fractional point sizes whereas
we do?

16px * 0.77 = 12.32px  (i.e. 77% of 12pt is 9.24pt)
16px * 0.80 = 12.80px  (i.e. 80% of 12pt is 9.6pt)

If rounding upwards, both 80% and 77% would be rounded to the same size (10pt)
whereas Safari would draw at 9.24pt and 9.6pt.
