See issue 40 for some details.

\version "2.15.9"

\layout{ ragged-right = ##t }

\relative c'' {
  % it is *not* under flat symbol:
  % \override Voice.Accidental #'transparent = ##t
  c4\glissando ces
}

Workaround with minimum-length:
  { \override Glissando #'minimum-length = #4
    \override Glissando #'springs-and-rods = #ly:spanner::set-spacing-rods
     c4''\glissando ces'' }

Note that minimum-length controls the distance between notes (until and unless the enhancement of issue 2207 changes the behavior) so we have to adjust the #4 depending on what accidentals are present.
