I can reproduce with emacs -Q and eb0f65b4.  Here's a recipe:

1. emacs -Q
2. C-h h to open the HELLO file
3. M-: (setq line-spacing 50)
   Here, that's immediately visible.
   (window-size nil t) => 96, (window-size) => 47 but actually
   with this spacing there are only 11 lines visible, i.e., I see
   the HELLO portion from line 1 to the second line of the South
   Asia entry.
4. When I click on some word in lines 1-3, point is set on that word.
   In later lines, point ends up on the previous line.  For ex., I
   click on the "examples" in "Non-ASCII examples:" and point is set
   to the beginning of the empty line before.  Clicking on "South" in
   "South Asia:" puts point on "Middle" in "Middle/Near East:".

Doing the same with line-spacing set to 10, the problem becomes worse.
Again, clicking on the first 3 lines works correctly, then on the next
2-3 lines jumps to the line before, then clicking on the next few lines
makes point jump to 2 lines before the click position, etc.  So it
becomes worse for the lines displayed later in a window.
