I didn't seem able to come up with a complex real-world file that ran 
unchanged on all interesting Lily versions, so I just ran the original 
\repeat unfold 900 stress test, with the following results:

2.19.19  12.3 12.3 12.3
2.19.17  12.6 12.4 12.4
2.19.15  15.7 15.0 15.2
2.18.2   15.5 15.5 15.8
2.16.2   23.5 23.5 24.0

This is on 32-bit Debian/Linux

It's interesting that it seems to be a development that already was in place 
from 2.16.
