Not on my xterm on KDE. ovk's mod now makes gvim consistent with vim in an 
xterm, and vim in a konsole, when I use the same font as gvim.

It seems to me that the guideline you refer to is very old, and has long been 
superseded in modern DEs, which support configurability of these elements, or 
minimises them.

If consistency between vim and gvim is a goal, all that hard-coding of sizes 
and widths needs to be removed so that the user's themes and styles and so on 
are allowed to work.  The present code guarantees inconsistency, at least on my 
screen.  Of course, it can't be as easy as that, and I am by no means even 
slightly proficient with this stuff.
