With the new "<< ... >>" syntax, it seems now to work.  Still, the cluster
systematically stops one music event too early.  I fixed this with the
attached patch.

Ok, but currently, if I replace

startCluster = #(make-span-event 'ClusterEvent START)

in ly/spanners-init.ly with

startCluster = \notes {
  #(ly:export (make-span-event 'ClusterEvent START))
}

(which I expected to work analogous to the definition of e.g. "cresc")

then I get a parse error when trying to compile
input/regression/cluster.ly.  Is this intended behaviour?

Ooops, sorry for that.  Actually I hesitated compiling the full web site,
since this takes many hours on my machine (mostly because of the mftrace
stuff), and I can not run it over night, because my tetex installation
(which is mounted via nfs due to lack of disk space), comes with an old
texinfo version, and therefore I have an additional, newer version of
texinfo installed locally, but since these two versions bite each other, I
have to switch paths several times during compilation... (arrgh!)  But I
will try anyway, next time.

Greetings,
