Re: score runs off the page

[Peter Chubb]

With 2.12.2, the overture compiles (with some warnings), and looks OK
on a4 paper, except for the last page, where bar numbers are printed for
non-existant staves.  Also the copyright notice on the first page
collides with the music.

With 2.13.9, the 'cello parts run off the bottom of the first page,
and on the second and third pages the systems are expanded to fill the
page instead of taking their natural height.  The problem with bar
numbers from bar 40 is still there.  I've found the problem for the
bar numbers: on line 357 of overture.ly you've typed 111 instead of 11
for the number of rests.

Putting an explicit \break after bar 6 gives a nice page turn (almost
all parts have rests) and fixes the spacing problem on A4 paper.

Here're the changes I made:
