I tested on MS-Windows, but I don't think the platform matters.  The
only platform-dependent part is which font is used for the
variable-pitch face; the rest of the code involved in this is
platform-independent.

Once again, the problem is not in :width vs :min-width, the problem is
in the pixel-width values given to these display specs; see my other
message in this thread.
