inconsistent \RemoveEmptyStaves action

[jh]

From one project to the next sometimes 'Frenching' a score works and 
sometimes it doesn't
This is the shortest example I could figure out how to make
the second system should be just two staves (and using the same context 
etc 5 days ago worked as expected on a different score so this was copy 
pasted)

Please point to my stupid errors.
