Issue 1255 - Fraktur hyphen glyph

[Knut Petersen]

First of all: Thanks to all who contributed to lilypond.

For most (not all!) antiqua fonts the code found in
lily/lyric-hyphen.cc does produce reasonable results.
But the horizontal line used as a hyphen is definitely
unusable for fonts from the Fraktur family.

The attached .ly and .png illustrate the problem:
The second stanza line uses the correct glyph,
but it´s necessary to override the x-offset of every
single hyphen ... at least a better solution without
changing the lilypond source code is unknown to me.

I think my problem is an extreme case of lilypond
issue 1255.

Does anyone know an easier way to obtain proper
fraktur hypens or is extending lily/lyric-hyphen.cc
the only option?

I built lilypond from a local git repository on an
opensuse 12.1 based system.

cu,
knut
