Could you please provide an example of such problems.

That particular formulation stems from a very old version of LilyPond.
It might possibly have been true at that time, but for current
LilyPond, I don't agree with what's written there. Also, if you
look at the examples of repeats with upbeats at
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.12/Documentation/user/lilypond/Long-repeats#Normal-repeats
you can find examples where \partial is used in the middle of
a score.
