When using higher resolutions in gfxterm, the default font is a bit 
small.  It looks like the default size grub-mkfont uses is 16, so I 
tried rebuilding my own larger version of unicode.pf2 with --size=32. 
It makes no difference.  The output file is not any larger and when grub 
loads it at boot time it looks exactly the same.  I also tried 
--size=64.  I used /usr/share/fonts/X11/misc/unifont.pcf.gz as the grub 
wiki suggests for the source.
