Here is a smaller one:

%begin

\version "2.11.34"

\new StaffGroup <<
\new Staff { c'8 c' c' c' c' c' c' c'
       c' c' c' c' c' c' c' c' }
 \addlyrics { a a a a a a a a schwartz c c c c c c c }

\new Staff { c'1 c'1 } \addlyrics { a schwartz  }>>

%\layout{
%    \context {
%      \Lyrics
%        \consists "Bar_engraver"
%    }
%  }


% see bug 501 http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=501
% end

If you uncomment the layout block (what means to welcome the bar
engraver into the lyrics context) there is no clashing. Be careful
because this causes tiny barlines of one dot in height to be printed.
