accommodate one lyric syllable, rather than the 2 or 4 in the original. Is
there a way of changing this behaviour so that each beamed quaver
accommodates a syllable, and it's only slurs that make more than one note
per syllable?

<http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/lilypond/Aligning-lyrics-to-a-melody#Multiple-notes-to-one-syllable>:
"In addition, notes are considered a melisma if they are manually
beamed, and automatic beaming (see Setting automatic beam behavior) is
switched off."

Thanks. Looks like the only way of avoiding this, then, is to set the stave to auto beaming, even though the stave is manually beamed. Not sure I like this as a behaviour - I would expect slurs to default to causing syllables to extend over notes, but not beams.
