I've noticed this kind of thing [a lot!] for a number of versions now — maybe
starting 2.13.7 or so? — but haven't had the time to make a minimal example.
Forced page breaks definitely wreak havoc, though the effect seems to be
minimized by changing the page-breaking mechansm (e.g., optimal- vs minimal-).

I ended up taking advantage of my layout functions:
pageBreaksForbid = { \override Score.NonMusicalPaperColumn
#'page-break-permission = ##f }
pageBreaksAllow = { \revert Score.NonMusicalPaperColumn #'page-break-permission
}
lineBreaksForbid = { \override Score.NonMusicalPaperColumn
#'line-break-permission = ##f }
lineBreaksAllow = { \revert Score.NonMusicalPaperColumn #'line-break-permission
}
It's a hassle to do this manually — especially on a 40+ page score — but it was
the only way to crank out the score in the required time.
Hope this helps!
