--- Comment #5 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
This looks to be another font with bad metrics. 

Bibisecting with builds on hand, the line heights are as legacy through this
build:
Version: 5.3.0.0.alpha1+
Build ID: 0f3861e65d8e652dcc31cf9a2f2b5c1a0a73b86d
CPU Threads: 8; OS Version: Windows 6.2; UI Render: default; Layout Engine:
new; 
TinderBox: Win-x86 at 62-merge-TDF, Branch:MASTER, Time: 2016-11-19_23:33:29
Locale: en-US (en_US); Calc: CL

And first note bad with the build:
Version: 5.4.0.0.alpha0+
Build ID: 9691cea443a74885b3f81c602efdd3345de1e3f9
CPU Threads: 8; OS Version: Windows 6.19; UI Render: default; Layout Engine:
old; 
TinderBox: Win-x86 at 39, Branch:master, Time: 2016-11-24_14:26:28
Locale: en-US (en_US); Calc: CL

So that is in the range for the refactoring for bug 55469 with ref commit.

Should have simple workaround to correct the installed font metrics (with
FontForge, TypeLight, FontCreator, etc.)

@Khaled, for users as in this case needing to correct their font metrics--they
uninstall the font. Then edit it to set the hhea and Typo to match the OS/2 Win
Ascent/Descent, right?  Testing, I just did that and it restored the formatting
of the earlier builds to 5.3 builds.
