Update: there was actually a web font rendering issue on my machine. No web fonts would render at all.

Clearing the font cache as instructed here solved the problem.

Working for me on Chrome 20.0.1132.21 beta-m, Win 7, but very jagged aliased edges.

The icons look awful at small sizes

Any extra info in the script console?

Nope. After spending the morning digging (turns out no other web fonts would show up either) I discovered it was a corrupted OS X font cache.

Chrome 19 is fine here on Mac OS X

Also Firefox 14 is fine on OS X 10.7.4
