I don't know much about PDF rendering, but over the years I've used 
about half a dozen different programs to display PDFs.  They're all 
fine for displaying text, but when it comes to lines (like staff lines 
in lilypond) every program displays different things.  I don't think 
it's specifically lilypond's fault, since graphics with lines produced 
by other programs are also displayed in different ways.

The most important thing is the printed output, though, so I've never 
really looked into this issue.
