That shows the problem as independent from the tuplets (issue 3304).  Maybe the 
odd spacing around tuplets made the issue appear in a less-extreme situation 
for Phil, but in any case there is need for a rule to keep stems from going out 
of order.

I see the reversed order of the stems the same in all versions, only the 
spacing around front matter has gotten more strict in recent versions, forcing 
the notes to squeeze more for the same line-width.

I just added issue 3410
