"Lots of complex Scheme-processing" is not helpful since it increases
the likelihood of version incompatibilities outside of convert-ly's
reach, and of Guile version problems not related to the migration.

The problem area we are dealing with are large complex scores, but
written in a boring manner and style (regarding the LilyPond source),
preferably not even involving significant amounts of Scheme.
