that doesn't make sense: for various accidental styles, a reminder may
need to be printed more than one measure after the last alterated
note. As far as I can see, the localKeySig keeps the last alteration
for a given pitch indefinitely, until the next alteration of that
pitch is seen.  This is what happens in
Accidental_engraver::stop_translation_timestep ().
