Under Debian/unstable, I don't get it either. Neither with

  ftcrhb:-PfEd-DejaVu Sans Mono-normal-normal-normal-*-15-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1

But the bug occurs with

  ftcrhb:-PfEd-DejaVu Sans Mono-normal-normal-normal-*-18-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1

That's for the rendering. I don't know whether the cell height is
honored in all these cases.
