PageLayout - no rhyme no reason.... Lilypond 2.9.24 - Windows.

[Trent Johnston]

Hello,

I've been struggling with page-layout with recent versions of Lilypond. But
I think I've narrowed a bug when using #(define page-breaking
optimal-page-breaks)   - all manual \breaks and \pageBreaks are ignored.
(see code below)

There are still other problems I can't narrow down without a fuller example
but sometimes using the newer page-break routines user \pageBreaks and
\breaks are ignored.

Also when compiling a score of different movements some are spaced tightly
but other movements are spaced with only one bar per line.
