I found the source of the problem: It wasn't the measure length, it was a
problem with forced beams:
I wrote:
g4 [ < g h,>8 < g h,>8] g4 [ < g h,>8 < g h,>8]
in a 4/4 instead of:
c4 < g h,>8 [ < g h,>8] g4 < g h,>8 [ < g h,>8]
But this syntax error occurred several measures before the measure I
suspected to cause the problem.
Nevertheless, I learned much about trouble-shooting!

Hi everyone!
I've got the following problem:
I write a String Quartet; Line Break and page fit etc. work without any
problems for the violin2, the viola and the cello (log reports to fit it
on
10 to 11 pages); if I now add the violin1 it works, but only until a
particular measure; from there, the line break is not executed propery,
i.e.
the line continues after the paper margin and ends in nowhere (log now
reports to fit on 7 to 8 pages..?);
Does anyone know about this problem?
Have you checked that all your measure lengths are correct? If a
measure isn't correct you might not have notes finishing at the end of
measures, and lilypond will have trouble finding places to break
lines. Here's an example in case that isn't clear
\time 4/4 a4 a a % <--- This bar is missing a beat \repeat volta 20
{a2 a} % <--- None of these notes will begin at the start of
% a measure, because they're all offset by a
% beat.
