Since we want to release Emacs 25.1 soon, I've added a variable, xft-font-ascent-descent-override, that allows to work around the problems reported in this and related bugs. By default, the variable is nil, which disables overriding the font ascent and descent values, as this seems to be unnecessary on most systems, and produces annoying results with some fonts. On those systems where the override is still needed, users can set the variable to a non-nil value to solve the rendering problems. With that, I consider the bug fixed for Emacs 25.1, and I'm removing it from the list of bugs that block the release. We would still want to find a proper fix for these problems, when their cause becomes known. Thanks.
