Actually, I also noticed that recently Lilypond seems to use ragged-right=##t 
for scores with only one line, while before the default was to use 
ragged-right=##f, so all scores that looked fine before now look terrible, 
because they no longer fill the whole line...

In this case it's lilypond silently changing its default rather than the user!
