Hi,

This looks good to me.

Note that it "fixes" the vertical spacing issue in xterm with some
truetype fonts (DejaVu Sans Mono in my case), I no longer need need to
set 'XTerm.*.scaleHeight: 1.1' in my X resources to avoid having '_'
and other low parts of glyphs beeing hidden at the bottom of windows.

It may be a consequence of the new "slight" anti-aliasing algorithm
(which I'm using), but there are many other changes in ChangeLog that
may affect glyph heights.
