Hi,

This draws a slur from the end of the first alternative ending to the 
beginning of the second alternative ending, which makes no sense (and you 
may even argue it's a bug that this does not give an error or warning 
message).

I need a (partial) slur at the end of the first ending to indicate it's 
slurred back to the first e' of the repeated segment. Just like the 
pickup bar (\partial 4) is slurred to that same note.
