Indeed.

Sounds logical. Thanks for the help. For the archive I quote the full code:

\score {
  \relative c' <<
    \new Staff \with { \consists "Bar_number_engraver" } {
      c4 d e f \break
      g4 a b c
    }
    \new Staff {
      \time 3/4
      c,4 d e4
      f4 \bar "" g a
      \time 2/4
      b4 c
    }
  >>
  \layout {
    \context {
      \Score
      \remove "Timing_translator"
      \remove "Default_bar_line_engraver"
      \remove "Bar_number_engraver"
    }
    \context {
      \Staff
      \consists "Timing_translator"
      \consists "Default_bar_line_engraver"
    }
  }
}

I believe it should be prudent to add this information to the snippet, because 
everyone who finds and uses it will run into this (unless (s)he knows it 
already).
