% Bug-demonstration: if you link lyrics to a Devnull context,
% the implicit melismata get ignored.

\version "2.11.12"
\layout { ragged-right = ##t }

musicTie = {
  c'4 g'4 ~ g'4 c'4
}
\score { <<
  \new Staff = staffTie <<
    % The notes. The lyrics should align to these.
    \musicTie
    \new Devnull = "invisibleTie" \musicTie
    \new Lyrics \lyricsto "invisibleTie"
    \lyricmode {
      Ape nut mice
    }

}

Melismata are defined by the voice context. Connecting lyrics to a devnull
looses the voice/lyrics links, and hence info on melismata.

Perhaps this is a manual problem, in that the manual suggests to use devnull for lyrics.
