No bug, it's just space left for the descenders of the text that "might" occupy that space with the
image. The part that hangs down from letters such as p, or g, etc.
Adding {vertical-align: bottom;} to your - a img - selector, instead of the text-decoration, should
remove the problem for the image, while leaving the underline under the text unchanged.
