Lilypond font size problem (ghostcript?)

Hi there,

I'm not sure whether this is a bug or a misconfiguration on my part. Whenever I compile music scores with lilypond (2.18.2) all the text fonts are ridiculously oversized. The problem exists no matter what output format I choose (ps, pdf). The source files are unchanged from previous versions so that I suspect some kind of problem in the interaction between lilypond and ghostscript. I don't observe any issues with other applications.

Did somebody else encounter this problem? Any ideas what could have gone wrong?

Thanks for any hints
Felix
