How can I accomplish the latter? The manual says something about a 
Multi_measure_rest_engraver that voice \consists, but I just get *multiple*
bars with rests.

Ex.:
----
\score{
        \notes{
                \time 4/4;
                R1*10
        }
        \paper{
                \translator{
                        \VoiceContext
                                \consists "Multi_measure_rest_engraver"; }
        }
}

Produces the error "warning: unbound spanner `multi-measure rest'" with lily
1.3.91 and the output is corrupted/strange. I suspect a bug.
  Should the R-rests automaticly collapse to a single multimeasure rest if
engraved in such a context?
