I'm working on an ebook product which has a very basic HTML structure - essentially all content elements (mostly <p>) are immediate children of <body>. I've centered this content with the following CSS:
body > * {
min-width: 300px;
max-width: 650px;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
Since the font test <div> is added as an immediate child of <body>, this CSS prevents the font detection from working. It was a bit fiddly to track down, as the only 'errors' I could detect were that STIX fonts would always be skipped, and there was a delay in loading the web-fonts. It would stick on "Loading web-font TeX/Main/Regular" for maybe 8 seconds, then show "Can't load web-font TeX/Main/Regular", however it would then seem to render using "MathJax_Main" anyway.
Once I figured it out, normal behaviour for font detection/loading was restored by adding:
#MathJax_Font_Test {
min-width: 0;
max-width: none;
}
My thought is that it might be worth adding min/max width resets to MathJax itself since the font detection depends on the width of #MathJax_Font_Test, yet it was so easy for me to unwittingly break it.

Oops, sorry this has been unanswered. Yeah, this sounds like a bug -- I've moved it to the bug tracker at https://github.com/mathjax/MathJax/issues/517
Thanks for tracking this down!
Peter.
