Also, when I'm compiling the source, I get:
"programming error: round filled box vertical extent smaller than blot;
decreasing blot"


This certainly sounds like a bug, when Lilypond spits out such messages it means that _something_ is wrong internally.

Could you send a piece of music that demonstrates this? (fairly small examples are appreciated, but big examples are ok too if you don't know how to isolate it)

Sure. I've changed one of the examples from the "Tips & Tricks" section of the manual to display this behavior. It's appended at the end of this message.


At first I thought I was misunderstanding the \skip directive, but now I think that isn't necessarily so (though I certainly could be using it wrongly elsewhere :-)).

Here's the example.

I'm using Lilypond 2.2.1.

\version "2.2.0"
\paper {
    linewidth = 160 \mm
  \context {
    \LyricsContext \consists "Bar_engraver"
    \override BarLine #'transparent = ##t
  }
}
\renameinput "lyrics-skip-notes.ly"

\header
{
  title = "Skip The Dog"
}


% shorthand for Skip Lyric sl = \notes { \skip 2 }

\version "2.2.0"
\score {
  <<
  \context Voice = "A"  \notes  {c2 c c c}
  \lyricsto "A" \context Lyrics=A \lyrics { foo __ \sl \sl bar }
  \lyricsto "A" \context Lyrics=B \lyrics { foo -- \sl baz bar }
  \lyricsto "A" \context Lyrics=C \lyrics { foo -- baz -- baaz bar }
  >>
}
