This is because "font: menu;" doesn't return the correct system font. In nsDeviceContextMac.cpp the constant kThemeSystemFont is used (instead of kThemeMenuItemFont).

Changing the constant in nsDeviceContextMac.cpp will affect all apps and require lots of changes in themes. Mac-only themes are easy, if you need "small" menu fonts, like in Pinstripe's button.css, caption fonts could be used. The hard part is cross-platform themes that uses "font: menu;" for non-menu elements.

When the patch in bug 335683 has been checked in, "font: -moz-pull-down-menu;" can be used to get the correct font for menuitems.

Mano, you already looked at Classic today. Now it's time for Pinstripe :-). Hmm, shall I open a bug to adjust the left spacing?
