After some investigations:
In plotmath.c, line 2250 the "the gap between the nucleus and the
radical extension" is defined:
#define RADICAL_GAP 0.4
It looks like this gap is not added to the hight (or included in the
calculations of the hight) of the denominator of a fraction. So the
whole denominator is located to close to the fraction bar, if a root is
drawn.
I don't see, how this can be fixed smartly ...
