New issue 3741 by address@hidden: In lyrics, hyphens are added to words  
in version 2.16.2 only if the word crosses a barline
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=3741

% In lyrics, line breaking using the -- convention does not work when a  
word is contained in a single measure. The -- convention works only when  
the hyphen crosses a boundary.

% I have taken an example from the tutorial at:

%  
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.16/Documentation/learning/aligning-lyrics-to-a-melody

% where the output shown in the tutorial is not reproduced in 2.16.2.  
Specifically, "manger" is not broken with a hyphen. I also played with the  
example to show that crossing a barline is the key to making -- work as  
documented.

\version "2.16.2"

<<
% Example from online tutorial, note that manger is not broken
  \relative c' {
    \key g \major
    \time 3/4
    \partial 4
    d4 | g4 g a8( b) | g4 g b8( c) |
    d4 d e | c2
  }
  \addlyrics {
    A -- | way in a __ | man -- ger,
    no __ | crib for a | bed, __
  }

<<
% Altered example where manger is broken
  \relative c' {
    \key g \major
    \time 3/4
    \partial 4
    d4 | g4 g a8( b) | g2. | g4 b( c) |
    d4 d e | c2
  }
  \addlyrics {
    A -- | way in a __ | man -- ger,
    no __ | crib for a | bed, __
  }
