That example is almost correct, apart from the \version line.  It needs
to be at least 2.19.38.

Assuming that this version will already contain the patch

Current branch: issue4785
Tracker issue: 4785 (https://sourceforge.net/p/testlilyissues/issues/4785/)
Rietveld issue: 293730043 (https://codereview.appspot.com/293730043)
Issue description:
  Let TextSpanner inherit any direction set in event  Something like
  c_\startTextSpan should create a TextSpanner below the system.

In other words: this should have worked but didn't.  Without a testable
example in all of the thread, I was not going to bother with checking.
Now that I've been able to check, I've created a fix.
