Yep, that looks like the cause.

The extra padding added to keep the `cresc.' away from the piano dynamic  
makes the
combined padding from left-right larger than the distance between the  
spanning points.

From line-spanner.cc:

 273   if (gaps[LEFT] + gaps[RIGHT] > dz.length ())
 274     {
 275       return SCM_EOL;
 276     }

Line 275 is where you'd want a warning.
