It forces the DPI to some value (instead of getting it from the
system). Otherwise, I don't know what value is taken. Perhaps
the one given in /etc/X11/xinit/xserverrc? It contains:

exec /usr/bin/X11/X -dpi 100 -nolisten tcp

No-one seems to know. I suggested that it could be due to a rounding
error somewhere. Note that a rounding error would not necessarily be
a problem; if this is the cause, then the problem is probably a lack
of consistency leading to a missing line under some conditions.
