[ Lilypond 2.11.12 ; Mac OS X 10.4.9 ]

Hello, all!

In recent versions of Lilypond,
Could you be more specific. Are you talking about recent 2.11.x versions or ...?
I find that the first element of every measure is generally too close to the preceding barline for my taste -- i.e., there isn't enough left-padding on the first note or rest or whatever (n.b., the spacing issue is especially egregious when the first item is an accidental, arpeggio, or other "note attachment").
After some search, I noticed that the fix to http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=10
included the following change:
http://git.sv.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=lilypond.git;a=commitdiff;h=4882689987e5f33926fff2cbee0dced4d5de9c7c#patch7
which might be what you have reacted on.
To get the previous value of this specific setting, you can do
 \override Score.BarLine #'space-alist = #'(
                       (time-signature . (extra-space . 0.75))
                       (custos . (minimum-space . 2.0))
                       (clef . (minimum-space . 1.0))
                       (key-signature . (extra-space . 1.0))
                       (key-cancellation . (extra-space . 1.0))
                       (first-note . (fixed-space . 1.3))
(next-note . (semi-fixed-space . 1.3)) % Changed from the new default 0.9
                       (right-edge . (extra-space . 0.0)))
