I haven't read your .ly file, but whenever measures run off a page, it
generally means that not all the staves have the same rhythm, so there's no
place for lilypond to break a line (at a measure break).  Typically what
will happen is an 8th or 16th note is left out of a measure.

You can usually find these problems easily with bar checks.

HTH,
