Thanks. With the after-line-breaking and a couple of additional 
overrides, things now display correctly:

\version "2.13.51"

\relative c' {
    \override Glissando #'breakable = ##t
    \override Glissando #'after-line-breaking = ##t
    \override Glissando #'bound-details #'right-broken #'padding = #0.5
    \override Glissando #'bound-details #'left-broken #'X = #2
    \repeat unfold 10 { c4 c c c\glissando d d d d\glissando }
}
