Having tried the example, I think it is a much worse bug than I imagined. My impression is that it should not be too hard to fix, so I will now look into it. 
.
Superficially it is simply that the embedded line is drawn with the wrong offset from the baseline. As far as I can see, in all other respects (e.g. the re-positioning of the baseline and adjoining text) it appears to be OK. I am aware, however, that appearances can be deceptive! 
.
I find it a difficult situation. I can't fix every problem. Should I feel bad about that?

Don't be so hard on yourself! It's taken 15(?) years for someone even to be bothered to mention this one - and even then your response is measured in days! We are all very grateful for your remarkable diligence.
