Comment #2 on issue 1240 by n.puttock: Music overflows page: #'((space . N) (stretchability . 0)) and nothing more with spacings
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1240
#'((space . N) (stretchability . 0)) is effectively the same as setting alignment-distances (i.e., fixed space between staves).
Here are two simpler snippets, both demonstrating the same problem (and identical overflows):
<< \new Staff \with { \override VerticalAxisGroup #'next-staff-spacing = #'((space . 20) (stretchability . 0)) } \relative c'' { \repeat "unfold" 42 { c4 c c c } } \new Staff \relative c' { \repeat "unfold" 42 { c4 c c c } } \score { << \relative c'' { \repeat "unfold" 42 { c4 c c c } } \relative c' { \repeat "unfold" 42 { c4 c c c } } >> \layout { \context { \Score \override NonMusicalPaperColumn #'line-break-system-details = #'((alignment-distances . (20))) } } } -> warning: couldn't fit music on page: overflow is 11.898871 The extent estimate is far worse using alignment-distances though.
