Does it have to be 16x16? If not, the biggest font in the kernel is
sun12x22.
I don't think I've ever seen a true 16x16 font. Once you get bigger
than 8x8 you tend to reserve more room for the descent (the space
below the baseline for chars like 'g', etc.) which results in
non-square char boxes. You could use xmbdfed to create a font
or modify one.
I have a patched xmbdfed to export to a .c file at home. I can try
to dig it up...
