I don´t understand this conclusion.. Do you mean the "top" (or the
baseline) of the two text layers doesn´t match, or do you mean that the
baselines agree while the layers are sized differently?

Yes, you could use Gimp->text_get_extents to get the position of the
baseline, and the maximum size (measure XygjZ79 or something similar to be
sure ;) then you can resize the layer after it was created.
Don´t ask me for details, you have to play around a bit. (btw, if you
happen to write a sub like gimp_text_ext_iso (...) to do this I can
include it in Gimp::Util).
