There is a serious drawback of the above solution: If `skipbars=##t',
you must write e.g. `s1*3' to get a three-bar multi-measure rest in
constructions like `<< { ... } {... } >>'.  Replacing it with `s4
s2. s1*2' gives a different result...

A possible solution (and maybe even a good one regardless of the
specific problem) is to make `skipbars' ignore the structure of skip
rests, always accumulating them to the maximum value.
