Shucksie darn.  I see now that Mike's next patch set removed that function. 
Figuring out what to keep from the troublesome patch is, troublesome.

Logically, the start brace is 'cross-staff' because it crosses staves, and 
changes size and shape depending on staff spacing.  However, we went a long 
time without the brace being marked 'cross-staff' so going back is probably 
safest.

The 'kludgy' code Mike was removing recognizes the brace as a special case 
which has Y-extent set to #f, yet we do want it to take up space.  The Y-extent 
setting has been there since 2005, but I could find no reason for it.  I'll 
post a patch.
