The font size is specified in points instead of pixels, and this requires sane
DPI information provided by the underlying components (hardware, drivers, etc.)

If VirtualBox allows the screen pixel dimension to be changed together with the
window size, it should also change the physical dimension of the screen so that
the DPI remains constant.

To verify, please run the "xrandr --prop" command inside VirtualBox. The
physical display dimensions (??mm x ??mm) should change together with the
window size, if they don't, report it to the VirtualBox developers (VirtualBox
probably internally uses XRandR to simulate display size changes. If it does,
there is a way to specify the DPI using XRandR calls, too).

You might also be able to start the virtualized X server with a forced DPI
value, but I am not sure if that option is deprecated and will be overridden by
xrandr.
