I'll take another look at the "cross staff stems" documentation.

As to upgrading lilypond I tend to stick with the version that is
provided by my distribution (debian stable) unless I really need one
particular new feature. 

If an upgrade is at all necessary within the limited scope of this
particular project, I will check out more current environments that
I have handy (archlinux, ubuntu) so I can look at once in a while in
case I'm wondering which way things are headed.

I'll remember to take a quick peek some time tomorrow... see what they
have to offer.

Thanks,
