Judging from the code this appears to be deliberate (see GetTieBoxRegion()). Previously it probably wasn't a problem but a change was made to reclaim some of the top border if no plot title was given. This leads to a vertical overlap where none could exist before.

We can:
1) leave as is
2) revert code so that top border space is enlarged without title

   Well it looks a bit odd right now.  I can't think of anything other than #2 
though.  Barth?

I prefer to leave it as it is.  The tie boxes don't show up in a print.
