It must have been another one, v2.2.6 doesn't have the problem anymore, but

[hanwen@localhost guile]$ git describe --contains
c9910c604279f438728cd268272e1839cbc53835
v2.2.0~11
[hanwen@localhost guile]$ git describe --contains
c01a2a757e3c59727bdfa8d77568bf42525fbe05
v2.1.4~111

I still get

input/regression/mozart-hrn-3.ly:31:9: error: not a markup

        #(string-append  "It has been typeset and placed in the public "

and

$ gs -q -dSAFER -dDEVICEWIDTHPOINTS=595.28 -dDEVICEHEIGHTPOINTS=841.89
-dCompatibilityLevel=1.4 -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -r1200 -sDEVICE=pdfwrite
-dAutoRotatePages=/None -dPrinted=false -sOutputFile=mozart-hrn-3.pdf
-c.setpdfwrite -f/tmp/lilypond-OCyOzh
Error: /rangecheck in /--.parsecff--
Operand stack:
   false   --nostringval--

those look fixable, though.
