Pre-patched Anonymous Pro arrowheads are vertically misaligned on Retina with iTerm 2

[ZyX-I]

Migrated Lokaltog/powerline#916 by @mcantor:

• OS X version: 10.9.4
• Display: 13" Retina, 2560 x 1600
• iTerm 2 version: Build 1.0.0.20140629
• Vim version: 7.4.273

Before I tried messing with iTerm2 font configs:

After jiggling the vertical character spacing:

The latter screenshot is damned close, but as you can see from the full-sized version (please don't go by the thumbnail), the right arrowhead after "NORMAL" is clearly too small, and zooming in or out with ⌘+ and ⌘- exacerbates the problem.

I find this inconsistency unbefitting of our craft, and thus it cannot be countenanced. I desire perfection as advertised on the tin:

Some other info:

• iTerm2 Options
  • Terminal Type reported: xterm-256color
  • Set locale variables automatically: Checked
  • Character encoding: UTF-8
• bash
  • $LANG: en_US.UTF-8

I've got this too.

• OS X Version: 10.10
• Display: 15.4" non-retina1440x900. Also shows on external display, 1920x1080
• iTerm Version: Build 2.0.0.20141103
• Vim Version: 7.4.258

Same settings as @mcantor wrt iTerm2 and shell

I have the same problem without retina.

Set the Non-ASCII Font to one size lower than Font size. Usually works for me to make the arrow align,

Same problem here - Terminal.app on a 12" Macbook set to 1440x900 equivalent. Not just Anonymous Pro - \ue0b0 doesn't appear to line up properly using any of the fonts in this repo.

Also experiencing this in iTerm 2 and Terminal.app on a Retina iMac running 10.10.
