Here is one possibility how this could happen: if the _top_ of a clef  
pushes something like a bar number _horizontally_ away to a position where  
it does no longer overlap with the _bottom_ of the clef in the system  
above, the resulting vertical spacing from having the top stick out will be  
tighter as long as the top has less vertical overlap with the preceding  
clef bottom as the bar number would have had.

I don't think that it happens here, but this sort of sliding puzzle is  
conceivable.
