I'm pretty sure this is a known bug (see
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=712). The tempo
mark seems to ignore the break-align-symbols (and other properties
like X-offset) when it's over a multi-measure rest. I don't know a
good way to fix it.

Here's a horrible hack which looks about right:

 \tempo "text over notes"
 c1 c c c \break
 \once \override Score.MetronomeMark #'non-break-align-symbols = #'()
 \once \override Score.MetronomeMark #'X-offset = #-1.0
 \tempo "text over whole rest(s)"
 \once \override Staff.NoteHead #'stencil = ##f c1*0 R1*4

This will only work if you know the tempo mark is at a break and it
results in a bunch of programming errors so it isn't recommended.
Anyone have a better workaround (other than just using \mark or
\markup)?
