Hi Joe, your fix for #600 "packed-spacing definition may put notes
outside the staff", seems to be preventing the spacing from being
properly packed; unfortunately, it's not clear from the regression
tests for ancient music since they are so small and the change in
spacing is barely visible unless you have a fair sized example.

Is it possible to have the fix and keep the correct spacing?
