I'm attaching 2 screenshots of output that I'm getting when typesetting

looks
to me like a regression, but before adding it to the tracker (and
creating a
tiny example to do so) could someone assure me I'm not doing something
silly?
You are not doing anything silly, but the lyrics overlap the start bar
even
with version 2.12.3. The regtest lyrics-bar.ly seemed the most relevant,
so I
adapted it to create a small example:
\version "2.12.3"
\relative c'' <<
\new Voice = "a"{
\override Score.PaperColumn #'keep-inside-line = ##t
\override Score.NonMusicalPaperColumn #'keep-inside-line = ##t
b1 b1 b1
}
\new Lyrics \with {
\consists "Bar_engraver"
\consists "Separating_line_group_engraver"
} \lyricsto "a" {
baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaars lengthened if
}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "a" {
rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrequired for noncollision
}
\new Staff {
b1 b1 b1
}>>
I do not know an answer to the next obvious question : How do we tell
Lilypond
to consider the starting bar when spacing long lyric syllables?
I think what I'm seeing is actually a different bug. I've just spent the
last hour trying to reproduce it with a smaller example and failing. It's
quite odd. If I reduce the music I'm setting in almost any way, the
collision disappears and LilyPond sets the lyrics much more "sensibly".
Even reducing the music to the first page gives a good result. But with the
full music set, we get the collision. Think I'm going to have to work
around it with quotes rather than underscores.
