No, I meant overlaps as in valse 1, m. 39/40. The following works fine:
%%%%%%%%%%%%
\version "2.19.31"
\new PianoStaff <<
  \new Staff {
    \partial 8
    8-\tweak bound-details.left.text \markup\whiteout "cresc." \cresc
    4 4 4\!
  }
  \new Staff {
    8
    4 4 4
  }
>>
%%%%%%%%%%%
In 2.19.32, it will be possible to specify padding in whiteout-box (as 
of issue 4504). That will be preferable then, but for now 
whiteout-outline is just fine. (try \whiteout-box instead of \whiteout 
to test)

Yours, Simon
