Sorry for giving a short answer, I'm in a hurry right now...

Haven't deeply looked into your code, but I think I once solved this 
kind of problem (with some version in the 2.10 branch) by putting a
        \override Staff.VerticalAxisGroup #'minimum-Y-extent = #'(-X . X)
in the layout section of the incipits (i.e. in \markup \score {...}), 
where X is a placeholder for either 0 (try this first) or some larger 
value, identical for both directions. Can't remember right now...
If you need the non-zero value, of course you have to assure that your 
"real" staff has at least the same vertical extents, so you may have to 
put the same line in the top-most layout section. Don't bother if X = 0 
works, though...
