I like that you spoil, that's why I posted it - always better to hame 
some more pairs of eyes look at it and give feedback. I (and diffpdf) 
did not spot that one, compared to the CPDL version where I "only" 
tweaked the standard LyricHyphen to approximately match the LyricText 
one in thickness and position...

Unfortunately, the issue only occurs only with Harm's snippet.
My first thought is some incompatibility with other overrides, like the 
center-on-word, the font settings, or a callback the removes short 
extenders. However, I can comment all of those out, and still see the 
superfluous hyphen.
And I have a hard time to break it down to a minimal example. E.g., I 
can reduce to bass only and the issue still persists. Changing the font 
back to the default also is of no help, but changing the margins (while 
having line breaks at the same positions) is. Coincidentally, the 
lyric-syllable-magnetic-snap (from openlilylib) also has trouble dealing 
with this measure, and contracts deu -- ten to one entity although there 
is plenty of space between.

But right now, my reduction of the score is a total mess with comments 
here and there; I'll need to systematically approach this one and report 
back.


Cheers,
Alexander
