If it's a general problem with lilypond, submit a bug report with a tiny 
example to the bugs mailing list.

If there's nothing intrinsically wrong with lilypond, but just the way the 
snippet handles it, then the snippet needs correcting.  If it's not tagged 
docs, then just go ahead and fix it.  If it's tagged docs, consider at least 
proposing the change on this mailing list.  If it's really contraversial, 
running a review would be advisable.
