Breathe sign in lyrics messes up line spacing

[Reinhold Kainhofer]

Hi,
A while ago, I posted to this list about how to include a breathing sing into 
the lyrics (not into the staff), and Mats gave me the solution:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2005-11/msg00532.html

However, I'm still fighting with the issue (in lilypond 2.8.7), because that 
solution causes a rather large margin below that one lyrics line (it seems 
that for the calculation of line spacing the \raise is simply ignored). 

Is there any solution to this?

Thanks a lot,
Reinhold

PS: Sorry that I can't attach the test file to this posting, as the gmane 
webinterface does not allow you to attach files...
