Re: [bug] \breve in lyricmode

[Erik Sandberg]

This is due to the grammar of the lyrics mode. I don't know the exact rules, 
but it is something similar to this: everything that is not either at the end 
of a word and not in [0-9,/,*,"], or a \ or " in the beginning of a word, is 
treated as a normal character; a part of the syllable.

I do not consider this a bug.

You can achieve what you want with

{ foo1 bar1*2 foo1 }
