This reg-test was extended by my recent patch introducing dot-merging
functionality for the Merge_rests_engraver.
Though, the inconsistence happens at a point where the
rest/dots-merging is switched off.
I really have no clue how the extended Merge_rests_engraver could have
caused this.
Also, I would have thought at this point the output should be the same as for:
\new Staff
<<
\new Voice { \voiceOne r4. r4 r8 }
\new Voice { \voiceTwo r4. r4. }
\new Voice { \override Dots.color = #red \voiceThree r4. r4. }
>>
But even the above is not consistent.
So I think Carl is right about the dot column placement algorithm.
Although, I've no clue why the dot placement was different in the
reg-test in the first place.
Cheers,
