Re: another convert-ly problem

[Mats Bengtsson]

Along the same lines, the following

\version "1.7.1"
g2. \f \spanrequest \start "text" g8 \spanrequest \stop "text" \fz r |

is converted by convert-ly -t1.9.0 into
\version "1.9.0"

g2. -\f #(ly:export (make-span-event 'TextSpanEvent START) g8) 
#(ly:export (make-span-event 'TextSpanEvent STOP)) \fz r |

Ideally, it should be converted into

g2. \f \startTextSpan g8 \stopTextSpan \fz r |

but that might be too much to demand from our poor conversion utility.
