Timidity has several options affecting synchronization.  I haven't
managed to get useful results using any combination of them.
Historically, LilyPond was to blame for _some_ discrepancies because
different defaults for autoBeaming in layout and midi led to different
melismata.

However, even after fixing this (issue 2414, version 2.15.43) and after
Rosegarden (a Midi sequencer) displays sensibly aligned lyrics, Timidity
tends to be totally off, regardless which options one tries playing
with.
