Thanks for reporting back about the workaround you found - people browsing the archive with this problem in the future will appreciate the answer.
I don't know specifically what is causing the problem but it sort of sounds like an A4 vs. letter paper size assumption being hardcoded somewhere?

I still do not know whether this is a bug, but the workaround is:
Skip the "Fit page to selection" step and export as PDF; and
Use the pdfcrop utility, written by Heiko Oberdiek, and available from:
to crop the file saved in (1) to the correct bounding box dimensions.
System requirements for pdfcrop are also given at the above address.
The resulting bounding box and PDF file is accurate when viewed at 6400% with Acroread.
