inconsistent font settings in xfce4 components

A few days ago I switched everything to git#master, and removed most config files before I ran the new code.

I configured a larger font size in the settings, which was used right away for the settings app, the panel and everything else AFAICT. Then a few days later the panel went back to a very tiny font. Also Thunar uses the same tiny font. The time in the panel uses the tiny font, while the logname in the upper right corner uses the large font. In the settings window the font is still as large as expected, most setting apps use the expected large font. Just the panel setting for example uses the tiny font. I looked around for configuration files that could affect that behavior, but nothing looks related. Not sure what I did to trigger this behavior.

What does the panel and Thunar use to decide what font has to be used? What do other applications use to decide on the font size for their menus, like ristretto, parole, claws-mail?
