Yeah, it looks like there is a minimum size set (hence Bazaa instead of
Baza, or Baz, etc). That size just needs to be increased a bit so that
the final 'r' isn't cut off.

We could arguably increase it so that the tagline 'GPL Distributed
Version Control Software' also doesn't get cut off, but I think that is
less important than getting all of the right hand icons displayed.
