Comment #1 on issue 1311 by address@hidden: New spacing code affects  
user-created pseudo-staff contexts
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1311

Valentin, or anyone familiar this style,
Is this proper Lilypond input, and what was the intent?
Simply removing [[ \new LyricStaff ]] gives a compact staff in both 2.12.3  
and 2.13.38.

Presumably the LyricStaff was intended to contain something.  It will  
contain the Lyrics if one adds "\accepts Lyrics" to its definition, which  
centers the Lyrics but still puts a large space between staves (in both  
2.12.3 and 2.13.38).
