In this specific example, it seems that you have an extremely wide
key signature in one stave and none at all in the other stave. This is
a typical situation where you want to use
\override Score.SpacingSpanner #'average-spacing-wishes = ##f
since by default, LilyPond takes an average value of the ideal spacing for
each separate stave (see also
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-lilypond/2005-12/msg00043.html,
which shows that this specific problem has been present at least since
version 2.6).

Fair enough, but it's a *lot* more work in recent versions to have a
acceptable-looking score (with respect to initial measure spacing)
than it was in previous versions.
For example, I've included a screenshot of untweaked Lilypond output
for an instrumental part I cranked out yesterday -- you'll see that
the initial spacing is totally unacceptable without a good deal of
tweaking (the rests are almost completely swallowed by the key
signature); in other parts of the score, it is nearly impossible to
distinguish the barline from the left-hand side of the leading flat; etc.
Cheers,
Kieren.
p.s. Once the show opens (this weekend), and I have more time, I'll
submit specific bug reports...
