sorry if this is double posted, my mail-client seems to be affected by
sunspot activity or the lack of it. :)

cis'4 is a valid command; cis4' is not.
there is a perverse logic to this, which makes it not a convention but
syntax. the ' and , are actually part of the pitch, the numbers only
designate the duration and can be omitted. you are right, it is not
explicitly stated anywhere, if graham's ok with it, i'll add a patch
to the LM 2.1.2 to clarify this point. but once you've wrapped your
mind around the concept of ' and , being an integral part of the pitch
it becomes automatic.
c (d e f %comment
g a)
causes an error, but
c(d e f
g a) %measure 64
does not. (the comment has to be outside of the paren.)
no it doesn't (as graham has already pointed out). at least not here
on a mac using lilypond 2.12.1. and in the past 7 years of using
lilypond i've never run into this problem either on linux, mac or
windows.
