Are you using Xft? If yes, this is a problem with some versions of the
freetype library. Under some DPI / font size combinations, the size
reported by freetype of font glyphs sometimes differs by one pixel from
the size actually drawn.

See if you find the same problem in xterm. Usually, when I have the
problem you show, I see the same problem in xterm.

You should be able to avoid it by upgrading the freetype libraries, and
setting your DPI appropriately (96 or higher I think).
