Thank you.  With the above font, now I can reproduce the bug
both with 21.1.30 and 21.1.50, but not with 21.1.

In that font, the topmost pixels of diacritical marks on t,
d, and E don't fit within the area of FONTBOUNDINGBOX, but
those on e, s, c, etc all fit within the area of
FONTBOUNDINGBOX.  I believe this difference is the reason of
the above strange phenomenon.

Gerd, doesn't it ring a bell?  As 21.1 works correctly with
that font, some of recent changes to xdisp.c or xterm.c
should be the reason of this bug.
