bad interaction between listofabbreviations and interlinespace

[Johan Sandblom]

Consider the example below. It results in a list of synonyms that are
vertically misaligned with their meanings. What can I do?

Sorry to be a pest, but does anyone have an idea on this?

I've narrowed the problem down to one of the internal macros. With this:

   \unprotect
   \bgroup
   \def\@@makedescriptionpurebox #1{}
   \completelistofabbreviations
   \egroup
   \protect

the abbreviation list looks ok to me.

However, that is a quick hack that fixes the abbreviations only, at the
expense of breaking (lots) other stuff. I'll convert this message to
a bug tracker item.

Best, Taco

Thank you. It does not appear to break anything in my document, so I am happy.
