Well, lilypond never uses the dash glyph for hyphenation of lyrics.
Instead of a hyphen it puts a /draw_round_box into the output postscript
code.

I used "\override LyricHyphen #'stencil = #ly:text-interface::print" to
tell lilypond to really generate a hyphen glyph instead of a centered
round_box, but that hyphen will be printed at the start of the preceding
syllable and thus needs a manual x-offset override if nobody knows
a better way to handle the problem;-(
