Most bugs have the annoying property not to fix themselves
automatically.

This particular one is
<URL:http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=34>.  As you can
see in the issue report, Keith is occasionally working a bit on it.  As
you can see by the assigned bug number in the tracker, it would be
optimistic to expect this to magically become fixed in a short time span
as long as nobody is interested in investing more serious resources
(like time or money) that would seriously increase the interest in
getting this fixed.  Again, the low bug number suggests that mere
complaining on the mailing lists is a resource that has been amply
exercised by this amount of time and does not really add to the
excitement factor of solving this problem.

Depends on what you do in the middle of the score.
