Open the preference page.
Select Workbench->Fonts
Select Dialog Fonts (do not change it).
Press OK.
Open the preference page again. 
Notice that the font of the preference dialog has changed. (I don't mean the 
setting, I mean the dialog itself).

Note: I use Windows XP with large fonts (125%).

This is still possible with large fonts - the dialog font used is Tahoma 8

I think this bug is stale.  I used large fonts and tried the original scenario (except that the fonts are now on the Appearance->Colors and Fonts page).  Selecting the dialog font and not changing it did not change the font of the page.

A related issue now is that the Colors and Fonts page does not honor the default system dialog font when in large font mode.  It uses the smaller font.  I'll open a separate bug on this one.
