The first screenshot has "Document Default" selected, it is the same whether patched or unpatched. The second has Amasis selected without jackie_w's patch. The third has Amasis selected with jackie_w's patch.
I checked again attached the screenshots. These are taken on my wife's Glo running 3.12.1. There are four screenshots, two with Georgia and two with Document default. One of each has has the font dialog displayed to show which font it is. I have attached the copy of jackie_w's test epub from the Glo in case anyone wants to check it.

I don't have anything running 3.13.1. But, with the firmware running on my Glo, it seems to be the same.
