Some of this is caused by the rectangular skylines that LilyPond uses
around slurs:

\version "2.13.54"
#(ly:set-option 'debug-skylines #t)
\relative c' { << {e4( f g c b1)} \\ {c,4( d e f g1)\p} >>}

(A longer slur would produce a more extreme example.) Segmenting the
skyline into a number of tangent lines would improve things (even two
or three would help), but that's pretty far beyond my skills right
now.
