Sorry that was a misunderstanding. When you mentioned GTK and that your
Emacs looked like my XEmacs I thought you concluded from the toolbar of
my Emacs that it uses GTK.

Thanks!

I think I can rule that out. I took my self-compiled emacs binary and
ran it with the "-Q" option, so no init files should be read.
Then I changed the default font with "M-: (set-default-font ...)" and
again the line spacing was too big.

Hm, I can't think of such a setting in X.org. Also, I disabled all
"assistive technologies" in GNOME. If it was related to X, then I would
have the problem in xterm too, since I use the same font there.
