Well, that is hard to tell... Actually it look like the ink box of a normal 
line of text already accounts for ascenders and descenders. So 'interline 
space' is only the additional space. But I cannot say much more than what can 
be gathered through basic experimentation. I am really not willing to dive 
back in the typesetter source code right now.

It was not supposed to. But no one knows except Joris. Well, making diffs of 
the source codes of the latest releases should not be that hard...
