Spacing problems

[Phil Holmes]

I reported on .user some problems I had with trying to get Ossia staves 
properly spaced. 
(http://www.mail-archive.com/lilypond-user@gnu.org/msg62140.html) Didn't get 
a response, except from another user on .bugs who reported a problem with 
alignBelowContext.  I've now taken out all of the .13 specific spacing 
statements from my code, and run it through .12.3 and get almost perfect 
output first time.  Also, with .12.3 I get a clean compile, with .13.52 I 
get 878 (count-em) repetitions of:

"warning: staff-affinities should only decrease"
So - to me this is a regression and I'm gonna make a bug report to that 
effect tomorrow unless anyone can explain what's going on and how to fix it. 
Images are attached.

James Lowe reported too late last night that he couldn't space scores apart 
from one another. 
(http://www.mail-archive.com/lilypond-user@gnu.org/msg62149.html).  I tried 
and failed, and concluded that score-system-spacing appears to have no 
effect.  This also appears to be a regression, since we could space scores 
apart on the page in 2.12.  Again, I'll raise this as a separate regression 
tomorrow.

Don't get me wrong - as a general rule I think 2.13 does a much better job 
of spacing than 2.12 did, and I appreciate all the work put in.  But it 
looks like there's just another push needed to get it all working.
