Problem with lyrics (or should I say without lyrics?)

Hi,

Some parts of the score I'm currently working on (my first one with lily :) 
contain lyrics, some others don't.  Now my problem is that, even if a part 
doesn't contain lyrics, lilypond increases the distance between the staffs as 
if there were lyrics between them.

Here's a simple example:
The 2nd an 4th grand staffs are ok, but the 1st, 3rd and 5th aren't...
And if I use "\translator { \HaraKiriStaffContext }" the empty parts of the 
upper staff are removed, but the space for the lyrics is still there...

What can I do?

Thanx,
      Dominic
