space-alist problem

[Werner LEMBERG]

[Resending to lilypond-user, since the issue might be interesting to
 more people...]

What defines the distance between a time signature and the next note
*with an accidental* (in addition to the TimeSignatures
`extra-spacing-width')?  I would expect that the `first-note' (or
`next-note', if set) element of a TimeSignature's `space-alist'
handles this case also, but this assumption is apparently wrong, as
the example below shows...

In case this is a bug, it would be a quite serious one...
