If you use the absolutely latest development ("unstable") version of
LilyPond, you should be prepared for changes that are possibly not
always well documented. However, in this case, convert-ly should
convert your code to something that works in 2.7.17 (actually, as
far as I can see from convert-ly, this particular change happened
between 2.7.13 and 1.7.14.

Yesterday I upgraded from 2.7.14 to 2.7.17, and I immediately noticed that when trying to set fixed staff-spacing for a staff group, \set Staff.minimumVerticalExtent = ##f no longer seems to do anything. Consider the following example:

%%% BEGIN LILYPOND CODE %%%
\version "2.7.17"

text = \lyricmode { Hel -- lo world }

\score {
   \context ChoirStaff <<
       \context Staff = women {
           \set Staff.minimumVerticalExtent = ##f
           \set Staff.verticalExtent = #'(-6 . 2)
           \clef treble
           \context Voice = sop { c4 c c2 }
       }
       \context Lyrics = sopLyrics \lyricsto sop \text
       \context Staff = men {
           \set Staff.minimumVerticalExtent = ##f
           \set Staff.verticalExtent = #'(-2 . 6)
           \clef bass
           \context Voice = bas { c4 c c2 }
       }
    >>
}
%%% END LILYPOND CODE %%%

In 2.7.14, the lyrics would be placed exactly centered between the two staves, regardless of collision with notes. However, in 2.7.17 the lyrics are pushed down by the low notes in the upper staff. Is this a bug, or has the behaviour of minimumVerticalExtent changed?
