Are all things equal, i.e., same fonts on the same system? Some fonts 
have different default line spacing than others. For example, Palatino 
Linotype's default "single" space line spacing is noticeably wider than 
Georgia's. If you're using a document that was created in Windows on a 
Linux system or vice-versa, the original fonts might be swapped out for 
an equivalent on the second OS, which may have different line spacing.

I've not yet upgraded to 5.2, preferring to stay with the 5.1 family for 
now, so I can't confirm your experience, but I'd first check with the 
fonts. They all have different concepts of "single" or "double" spacing 
built in.
