(moving to the bug list)

Git bisect led to commit b6f94447415dded7c6e146b41b6139fe76cb84c4
(http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=lilypond.git;a=commitdiff;h=b6f94447415dded7c6e146b41b6139fe76cb84c4).
I do have a '\tempo 4=108' in the score (for midi purposes), but it is
hidden with

\layout
{
  \context
  {
    \Score
    tempoHideNote = ##t
  }
}

When I take out the invisible tempo mark it is set on 1 page again. It
appears that a hidden tempo mark is affecting the spacing somehow. I
haven't had much success creating a minimal example yet unfortunately.
I can probably attempt again this weekend if needed. Thanks.
