I haven't been able to create a small example that gets the bogus 
warning in the log, but while trying to do so I managed to reproduce 
what looks like a related/similar problem. When I build the example 
below using showLastLength, Lilypond puts a tie between the first two 
notes of bar 6, though there is no tie there in the source, and if I 
comment out showLastLength to build the entire score, the tie there 
disappears.

%=================================
\version "2.15.12"
\language "english"

showLastLength = R1.*4

\relative c'' {
    \time 3/2
    fs2 r4 r8 fs b4. d8 |
<g, e>2 r4 r8 b e4. g8 |
    as,2 r4 r8 cs e,4 ~ e16 d e fs |
