I did eventually solve this in case anyone is interested.

Turned out it was trying to use some fonts in
/usr/share/fonts/mentor-fonts -- the mentor fonts were added manually
some time ago so I could use Mentor Graphics remotely on Solaris
machines.  I don't know why pango/fontconfig/gtk/whatever was trying
to use it, or why pango read the font descents (and height) to be so
large, but moving them out of /usr/share/fonts solved the issue for
me.
