yep, it was the  fit_font_into_metrics  procedure (I added a check for
preventing it looping, but it doesn't solve the font issue).
suddenly the 8pt font has decided to not fit anymore into a 5x10 cell.
this is a total kludge.

I'm still for having pd.tk decide the cell metrics for each font. you
can't force a font to fit into some pixel size. this is what happens
when you try to do it   :-S
