I'm sorry for my mistake.  It should have been

\set beamExceptions = #'((end . (((1 . 36) . (9)))))

I left out one level of parentheses.

Had there been sample code that didn't work, I'd have tried it out and found
my mistake.

Hence the importance of sample code when you're trying to get help from the
list.

Thanks,
