if you use ChoirStaff the problem disappears, and you _should_ use
ChoirStaff for vocal music! Nevertheless, if you prefer StaffGroup you
may want to use a new development-version, but sometimes this will
provoke collisions of text and BarLine. I've no idea how this could be
fixed (apart from doing it manually).
