> Interestingly, note the Lyrics context has to be named to show the bug.

It's get_voice_to_lyrics () that appears to be to blame.  Once the  
associated voice dies (and associatedVoiceContext is empty, or  
associatedVoice hasn't been set), it looks at the lyrics id; if it's empty,  
no effort is made to find a voice (thus allowing the Extender_engraver to  
complete the extender correctly), otherwise it does its best to find any  
voice in the current stave, returning the first one found.
