Hmm, with current git, the first 1/4 bar is even worse: the crotchet is positioned in the last third of the bar's width; furthermore, it's not possible to correct this by overriding 'full-measure-extra-space unless you use negative values. > Furthermore, the positioning in the first measure of every line is > different to the rest of the measures on the line.

Looking in spacing-spanner.cc, it appears that the criterion for the extra space is that the paper column to the left of the SpacingSpanner has a break status of CENTER, which explains why the first bar in each system doesn't get any extra space.
