    I took to liberty to `hotfix' this issue in the lilypond git
    repository: There was a single place in `musicexp.py' that used 2.5
    syntax, which I've just changed back to 2.4 syntax in `staging'.

Thank you, Werner!  That is an excellent solution.

We will still want to look into a long-term fix in the build/distribution 
system.  But getting it to work right now is really important.

Thanks,


Carl
