This is by design, I changed the DPI method to be 96dpi if you don't specify anything and when DDC autodetection fails. 96dpi displays (the default for 17" 1280x1024 displays) are far more common than 75dpi displays (a 15" TFT at 1024x768 is 86dpi). If you don't like the new resolution, either force it by specifying a DisplaySize in xorg.conf, or start X with -dpi 75.
