I also have (just last night) had a similar vertical spacing problem
(2.11.34).
I had a piece covering two pages, the majority on the first page, and
the page break was where
I wanted it. Then I change a bit of the spacing of a text markup
(extra-offset) and I lost one of the
systems on the first page. I thought, no problem I'll just adjust
some of the parameters ( like
between-system-padding, between-system-space). But I couldn't get
the last system (or sometimes
last two systems), back onto the first page. I could get the systems
to be closer together,
but that would just leave even more space at the bottom of the page
(more than enough space
for one if not two systems). I adjusted the top margin to something
like 1mm and I got my
system back, but the systems were way more spaced out than they
needed to be, and the small
margin at the top was too small. I ended up with finding a different
place to break the pages.
Maybe I should note that each system contained a ChordNames, one
regular Staff, and another
"special" Staff which had a linecount of 0. I had wondered if that
last Staff might be confusing
the vertical spacing.

In this example there is clearly room for another system on the
first
page. Removing anything from the header will allow another
system to
move to the first page. Whatever is removed from the header clearly
doesn't take as much vertical space as one system.
I have also found that increasing the height of the text at the
bottom
of the first page will increase the page count. My piece "Recursion"
was seven pages, but when I reformatted its Creative Commons license
to be a couple lines longer, the score went to eight pages. I
fiddled
with it for quite a while, but was completely unable to get it
back to
seven pages and still be sensibly laid out.
Thanks for replying.
It seems to me there might be a bug in how the vertical size of the
next
system is calculated or subtracted from the available vertical
space on
the current page.
I have posted this in case there is some setting I am missing.
