Look at the 3rd system, beginning of the 2nd full measure, where the b-flat is
tied to the a-natural. The lyrics beneath that are all left aligned with the
b-flat. Even if I change the source to explicitly left, right or middle align
those words, the remain stubbornly left aligned.
This is the rule correctly applied that establishes syllables
left-aligned on first note of a melisma.
Another instance of this problem is in

http://tarna.oit.unc.edu/~utoddl/lilypond/ctlisrisentoday.ps
Here the problem shows up at the beginning of the last (4th) system. Again, all
the lyrics at the start of that measure are left aligned. Throughout the rest of
the piece they are all centered under their respective notes.
This is manually overriden in the file. Again, I find this correct
because that way different phrases (both textual and musical) begin at
the same horizontally aligned point.
