Hi, Randy,

it seems like this was kinda solved without me having a look at it at 
all.  In a recent message on lilypond-user (the "Partials and upbeats" 
thread), Carl Sorensen says:

So it looks like the problem is not inherent to my code, though of 
course the method used there is quite ugly and hack-ish, and it breaks 
if you try to use anything but MultiMeasureRests in the BarNumberStaff 
without manual tweaking of the global counter variables.
But in essence: One should not bother to care about the warnings as long 
as it works.


Cheers,
Alexander
