The appoggiatura beamed stems are too long.

If a simple answer exists, please help!

That example renders with some insanity under 2.11.16 (the stem of the
b-natural points *down* with a dramatically crossed resulting primary
beam).

Maybe you can tweak

 \once \override Beam #'positions = #'(2 . 3)

in the appoggiatura braces for a manual fix. If you've got a lot of
those, though, that solution won't scale.

Trevor-

Thank you. I used values of 2.5 and 2.75 to obtain very acceptable results.

Re the insanity under 2.11.16/17: I was able to restore the original stem and beam position by inserting another /stemUp after the final appoggiatura brace. The problem is apparently introduced by the beam position overide.

One more for the archives!
