Comment #5 on issue 3574 by address@hidden: convert-ly fails to  
handle \bracketCloseSymbol
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=3574

It's related to cues, probably working around a deficiency in lilypond.

The music to be referenced is

    fooMusic = { c8[ c c c] }
    \addQuote "foo" { \fooMusic }

but as a cue, I only need the first beat.  If I simply say

    \cueDuring #'foo #UP { r4 }

in another voice I get a warning that there is an unfinished beam.  My  
solution then was to write the following:

    fooMusic = { c8[ c-\tag #'foo-cue \bracketCloseSymbol c c] }
    \addQuote "foo" { \keepWithTag #'foo-cue \fooMusic }

With your recent changes, it is sufficient to write

    fooMusic = { c8[ c-\tag #foo-cue ] c c] }

since unbalanced [ ] no longer cause a syntax error per se.

Of course, the ideal solution would be that lilypond is able to  
automatically finish an open beam as soon as the quotation ends, but this  
is a different issue.
