First, I wonder why "&-" is defined to be unbreakable? This looks
like a bug to me. -ddof shows that hyphenation points are mapped to
&0ch.
I think that your problem is the next line. It seems that Lout tries
not to leave it underfilled. For example, try adding a word:
Dauer &0ch emissionen) foo
-^^^^- -^^^^-
and Lout will break Daueremissionen at the suggested point though it
won't add a hyphen?! FillObject adds a hyphen for ADD_HYPH internal
gap mode. It seems that HYPH_MODE is not converted to ADD_HYPH
somewhere...
