I still have no idea what's causing the unequal space, and I'd be interested
if one of the TeXperts could explain it.
To equalize intersystem spacing in PMX, Ae normally works great, but not if
you change the number of instruments in midstream. I concocted the macro
\spread to use with Ae just in case you need to UNequalize the intersystem
spacing in selected places. Even though you can't use Ae here, by trial and
error, I've found that you can still use \spread to equalize the spaces.
Here's a replacement paragraph that does the trick:
% Paragraph 10 line 72 bar 8
\\\mtxSetLyrics{41}{ve-ni-rent}\
\spread{-55}\ f43 s a4 g2 4 x143 c0- /
\mtxEM\ f43 )S a4 g2 c0- /
