The scope of testing is not much more than the list I posted at
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2010-11/msg00111.html

In fact, those tests did not include a case of Lyrics above their affinity 
staff.  My change (2b) placed a minimum-space rod from the centerline of the 
staff to the baseline of Lyrics, which pushes lyrics-above too far away.  That 
is not good, so I pulled that change out.

I had also forgotten my line endings earlier; these attachments are properly 
de-CR-LF-ied.
