abc2ly problem

[Laura Conrad]

It looks like abc2ly has not been modified to produce current syntax.  

I installed lilypond-snapshot from Pedro's site (Thanks, Pedro), and
wrote an ABC file that doesn't need all the scripts I normally use to
produce unbarred output with some ancient music features.  

The file is attached.  I get no errors on it with either abc2ps or
abc2ly-snapshot, and it works fine with abc2ly and lilypond from
2.0.1.  However, when I run lilypond-snapshot, I get:

[hark]# lilypond-snapshot tenor.ly
