This behaviour seems to be driven by this code in strc-not.mkvi:

\unexpanded\def\normalnoterule
  {\ifvmode
     \dontleavehmode \blackrule
       [\c!color=\noteparameter\c!rulecolor,
        \c!width=.2\hsize,
        \c!height=\noteparameter\c!rulethickness,
        \c!depth=\zeropoint]%
     \endgraf
     \kern\strutdepth
   \fi}

When e.g. \endgraf or \kern\strutdepth lines are commented, the gap is
smaller, but still different.

Changing the depth from \zeropoint to a bigger value (1cm) makes the gap
same, but it leads to extreme thick rule.

What else could be tweaked here?

Thnaks, Jan

After couple of weeks I've updated my Beta and I cannot reproduce the
original behaviour any more!

Thanks for fixing, 

Jan
