Daniel -
With 2.4.6 your code gives 15 on the first line and 20 on the second.
Bug in 2.6.3?

Nope. Here's my test.ly:
\version "2.6.3"
{
\set Score.currentBarNumber = #15
\repeat unfold 5 c'1 \break
\repeat unfold 5 c'1
}
On the 2nd line, I get the bar number (20) but not on the first line.

Try this:
\version "2.4.6"
{ \set Score.currentBarNumber = #123
a'1 a' a' }

Dear list,
Because I am typesetting a fragment of a larger work, I would like to
display the bar number on the first line. By default Lilypond does not
do so, but begins displaying it on line 2. In ly/engraver-init.ly, we
encounter the following line:
barNumberVisibility = #default-bar-number-visibility
and in scm/output-lib.scm we see this:
(define-public (default-bar-number-visibility barnum) (> barnum 1))
So, it seemed like I should be able to do the following:
\set Score.barNumberVisibility = ##t
but this has no effect. I also tried this:
#(define-public (default-bar-number-visibility barnum) (#t)) but,
as expected, it didn't work either.
If anyone can shed light on this, I'll gladly write up a blurb on it
for inclusion in the manual. (I searched and didn't find anything
there, so please forgive if it's there and I missed it.) I am using
version 2.6.3 on Linux.
