Comment:

 From the patch:

 {{{
 font-family: Consolas, Monaco, Courier, monospace;
 }}}


 Put `"Courier New"` in front of `Courier`. Old Windows versions (XP) have
 neither `Consolas` nor `Monaco`, and `Courier` is a Bitmap font on Windows
 without anti-aliasing and in very view fixed sizes.

 My suggestion:

 {{{
 font-family: Consolas, "Courier New", Courier, Monaco, monospace;
 }}}

 Also note that `Monaco` ist not a real monospace font – the bold letters
 are slightly wider. Browsers usually fix that internally, so it is
 probably not a problem.
