New issue 2593 by address@hidden: Use of \bar at start of music leads  
to warning

Reported by David Kastrup here:

This arose from David's analysis of a complicated bug report from Sami  
Amiris here:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-lilypond/2012-06/msg00029.html

Original text follows:
----------------------
Apart from the bar not appearing (arguably wrong for a manually
specified bar even at the start of music), we get the warning

warning: cannot find or create `Timing' called `'

for the following input:

{ \bar "||" c' c' c' c' }

Putting \new Voice before this makes the warning disappear (but does not
let the bar appear, likely an unrelated problem).
