PDF icons scaled wrong on retina displays

As recommended, I used PDF images for some of my button icons with the expectation that they would look nice on retina displays. They are nice and smooth, but they're also scaled a bit smaller than on a regular display.

Example:

The left and middle icons are mine, and the right one is NSPathTemplate.

My PDFs (generated by Inkscape) are here:
https://github.com/Uncommon/Xit/blob/master/Xit/images/historyTemplate.pdf
https://github.com/Uncommon/Xit/blob/master/Xit/images/stageTemplate.pdf

Is there a problem with Inkscape's output? Do I need to change my button settings, or reprocess the PDFs somehow? Will I have to use @2x raster images instead?
