In this MWE the first  a is shifted to the left of the stem but the second one 
isn't. OK, it's a bit cramped, but I thought that the noteheads were scaled to 
the size of the staff to avoid this. 
 
Oddly, if the local staff size is changed to a global staff size, the anomaly 
disappears.

  <c'' e'' a''>4 <c' e' a'>  
  }
}

\layout {
  #(layout-set-staff-size 14) 
}
