This is passable. I was able to load up your save and pass through that slice in both directions no problem. Make sure you're holding down the jump key/button.

How odd, I am still unable to go forward in the slice. Even holding down the jump button.

How about a running start? Are you trying that?

Yes that didn't help at all. I am playing the Steam version on Windows if that affects anything at all. I am just barely missing the height needed to get to the top of the block.

I found another area that I can't jump high enough to get up there. It's close enough that you might be able to though. There is a slice back towards the entrance of that area that is one way though.

Well, I've tested this some more. It appears that the ladder on the left of the front door inside Demonica's keep is the right height that I cannot jump high enough to reach it.

Test 1: Laptop, Cannot jump high enough to reach ladder.
Test 2: Laptop, Started server on laptop and connected to it. Can reach ladder.
Test 3: Laptop, Disconnected from server and shut server down. Loaded game without exiting. Can reach ladder.
Test 4: Laptop, Restarted game. Cannot reach ladder.
Test 5: Desktop, Can reach ladder.
Test 6: Desktop, Used flash drive version. Can reach ladder.
Test 7: Laptop, Took flash drive from desktop and used it. Cannot reach ladder.
Test 8: Laptop, Ran server on flash drive and connected using flash drive game. Can reach ladder.
Test 9: Laptop, Turned off server and tried flash drive again. Can reach ladder.
Test 10: Laptop, Restarted flash drive game. Cannot reach ladder.

My laptop is a 64-bit Windows 7. My desktop is a 32-bit Windows XP.

Happily, I can duplicate this. It's related to the framerate on each machine, I think. When I force my machine to run at 20fps, I can't make that jump either. But when I am at a normal 60fps or more, it works fine. Josh tends to be in the 40s fps-wise as far as I know, so the problem area is somewhere south of that.

Normally, I'm around 30 actually, so, that hopefully drops your window a bit more.

Cool. Either way, it's now fixed at 20 even (and should be even for lower).

* Fixed an issue where on low framerates players would be slightly short of being able to make some required jumps (about half a tile).
** As part of this, the jump height in general even at the better framerates has been tuned to not make this such a frustratingly close thing when you need to jump to something that is five tiles above the floor. Before you would just barely scrape onto the surface, but now you clear it by about half a tile. In general this should help make these jumps feel more intentionally-designed.
