No, I think my copy of L-S-T is fine here (you can see from the images
I sent in my previous message).

Now that I've seen both, it looks like the issue is that the version
of "Sazanami minchou" in Debian includes hand-tuned bitmaps.  These
look much better in many cases, but because there's a limited number
of them, and the font-rendering system prefers bitmaps, it chooses a
slightly smaller size so it can use a bitmap.

The result is as you can see, that the size of CJK characters is
smaller than you might expect from the size specified.

Maybe this is such a rare case that it can be ignored, I dunno, but it
does appear that everything is functioning properly...
