I can confirm this, the VASSAL open source java project, which includes a 
version for linux, has looked at this (well, me and one other person).
(a) note the title of this bug is the exact opposite of the bug... it is not 
"needs additional vertical space" it is "takes up too much vertical space" and 
it does seem limited to text labels at least in my experience - for instance if 
you have a number of supposedly same-height buttons some with text and some 
with graphics the text ones are stretched vertically to fit the extra blank 
space.
(b) this is apparently unique to the ubuntu openjdk (or jre) 6... the fedora 
amd64 version of openjdk6 amd64 could not be tweaked to show the same bug... 
although this may prove to be incorrect as I did not pass along the info which 
seems to imply it is locale related as well and the tester for fedora is in a 
different continent from me.
it is discussed here - http://www.vassalengine.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1328 
and the posts towards the end are more precise.
