Appart from the textvariable/text thing, the code seems sensible. The only things I can think of are fairly bizzare - like case sensitive name (but then it shouldn't work at all), or the font system doesn't allow you to generate a larger size than that with that face (you could try a different face).
Perl is Huffman encoded by design.

Works here (gentoo linux). To be honest, I suspect that you need to emerge some font stuffs or something. e.g., freefonts (boy did that help - I wish I knew about that set years ago before I got gentoo...). Or perhaps your X server or X font server ... it's hard to tell. Can you bring up other applications and get huge fonts, say in openoffice.org or something?
