Comment #7 on issue 2631 by [email protected]: Kievan notation should space melismas, not notes
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2631
ok, not quite the same, but there's the common snatch of second note of melisma being too far from the first because the whole syllable is put under the first note. your spacing3.png tells me that the current patch addresses only this common part.
