As it turns out, it's working correctly for me as here well - I was
seeing one thing and expecting something else.

This was the eureka moment. For some reason, I though line-spacing
worked by manipulating the :line-height property of the newline
character, so I could use it to change the apparent vertical space
available to even a single line. It's not and I can't.

As soon as I change to a multi-line minibuffer, the new line-spacing is
obvious.

Thanks for the help.
