I never thought of using example/glosses that way. As Richard already said,
it's the way glosses are defined by the package covington. There are two
solutions:
1.) If you have only a few such example glosses, insert at the end of the
first line \vspace{-\baselineskip} in TeX mode.
2.) To globally change the spacing, insert to preamble:
\def\gll{%
\begin{flushleft}
\def\baselinestretch{1}%
\...@selfnt%
\vskip-\baselineskip%
\bgroup
\catcode`\^^M=12
\twosent
}
However, this might make glosses in other contexts look bad.
