GNU/Linux defaults to DejaVu Sans Mono, a sans-serif font. Sorry, I was a bit careless in stating that GNU/Linux, as a whole, defaults to that face; fontconfig on my desktop systems does. In any case, I find it odd that courier is the first fallback in "Monospace". I suppose this may be what you meant by "the code tells a different story". What about searching first for some other popular sans-serif alternatives, such as Liberation Mono?
