The minimal example you provided has no melisma so I would expect
that no extender line would be drawn. I've attached my 'minimal'

I highly doubt that your example is _minimal_... in other words, "as
small as possible". In particular,
- it uses manual beaming. Do you need to?
- it uses \autoBeamOff. Do you need to?
- it uses \melisma. Do you need to? (in this case you probably do)
- it uses notes other than "c". Do you need to?
- it uses more than one note. Do you need to? (in this case, you
probably need two notes and one rest)
When we debug lilypond, we often need to construct a truly minimal
example -- if we are going through a debugger line by line, having two
notes instead of 20 can be a huge time saver. This is why I'm being
so picky: somebody needs to make a minimal lilypond example. It could
be a programmer (whose time is better spent doing actual programming /
debugging stuff), me (who has enough work to do with other bugs and
documentation), or you (who hopefully cares enough about this issue to
spend an extra five minutes reducing the bug report to an example
which is as small as possible).
