I should just say "wow!" here.  I actually downloaded 2.3.22 last night,
but due to an installation mistake on my part (copying over only
existing 2.3.11 files rather than run the full make install script) I
got several errors, and went back to 2.3.11.  That should teach me not
to try compiling a new build past midnight when I'm falling alseep at
the keyboard.

2.3.22 works fine now that I'm fully conscious. Raggedbottom was exactly
what I needed to stop the automatic vertical spacing to fill out the
pages, and betweensystemspace is far more precise than my clumsy
override of verticalextent.  I'm also looking forward to playing with
the other new layout toys.

Once again, thanks - I mean, dank u wel! - to the Lilypond team.
