I remember I worked on it:

1.) Gtk2: I added support for Gtk2. See screenshot. It works well for me 
if I use "xrandr --dpi 144x144" as it is suggested in 
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/High_DPI

Your settings revealed a bug in Gtk2 bindings. Patch is attached.

2.) Qt: I wasn't able to add support of high-resolution icons in menus 
under Qt. My conclusion was that either Qt itself or LCL-Qt bindings do 
not support big icons in menus. When I used the correct size icon in the 
menu it was always (badly) downscaled to 16x16 pixels.
