Unfortunately, I've had some problems getting any other version than the
current standard package from my Linux distribution cleanly installed on
my system (probably I'm just not Linux-savvy enough). I've now uploaded
a test file http://lukas-pietsch.de/Music/mensuraltest.ly and the
expected output http://lukas-pietsch.de/Music/mensuraltest.pdf, with the
same snippets as in the documentation pdf. If anybody could be so kind
as to try and run that through their Lilypond installation?

I ran this with 2.13.45 and it compiles with some warnings (see attached zip of 
log file).

However, this is wonderful stuff!

Also your PDF is very informative and it would be nice to incorporate this into 
our own Notation Reference at some point, if at all possible - I can help with 
that if you need to.
