Do you have a test file for this? If I can easily verify that this
works, I'll commit these changes.

Unfortunately the main developers are very busy at the moment; we don't
have time to fix up patches. If any users here know python and are
interested in helping, we welcome any assistance; otherwise this work
will go to waste.
Speaking from experience, python is an easy language to learn. If any
users here are interested in helping out but don't know any programming
languages, python (and midi2ly) would be a great place to start.

I'm also a bit time limited, but I have some knoledge in python. Could one of you send me the patched version and a description of the buggy parts. I could be able to fix it enough to insert it into the code
...well I hope so :)
