One reason was that markings in the fringe are oddly divided if line  
spacing is used, rather than continuous.  The other one was to use the  
standard line spacing on the system, and the same line spacing as in  
Emacs 22 (Carbon).

That per se is a bug and should be changed.  It's probably easier to  
fix.

If someone provides one and it is considered safe, maybe yes.
But I wouldn't worry too much about the release, given the long list  
of NS specific bugs that the release will have anyways.
