Yes, me too. Somebody fix this!

Uhm, to avoid shift/reduce problems with bison. It's ugly, we'll have
to think of something.

Strange, is there a stepmake/GNUmakefile, did you autoconf + reconfigure?

Yes, those are TODOs. Font selection has to be fixed.
You can switch font styles in mudela, but currently Lily
can't decide what actual font will be used. Those decisions
are made in the tex/ps output itself...
mudela lily tex
roman -> settext -> cmr<size>.afm
italic -> setitalic -> cmti<size>.afm
Lily now wants to know the font metrics to produce reasonable
lyric spacing, so there's a translation table to guess the font
that will be used. The `8.afm' etc. are just wrong guesses, or
missing .afm's.
Anyway, this is all too ugly to discuss and will be fixed soon,
i hope.

Now, the second \partial seems an ugly one. Would it be OK to set
\partial 1; implicitly for the last (?) alternative? (Han-Wen, and can
this be done?)
a bit better, but still wierd things, of course.
\header{
bogus = nothing;
title = "Trip to Sofia";
composer = "David Bartley";
}
\score{
\notes \relative c'' { \key f; \time 4/4; \partial 4;
\repeat 2 { \relative c''{
[e8 d] | [cis a a e] [g a cis a] | [bes a g a] [bes d e f] |
[g a, f' a,] [e' a, cis a] | [bes d e d ] cis4-\prall [a8 d] |
[cis a a e] [g a cis a] | [bes a g a] [bes d e f] |
[g a, f' a,] [e' a, cis a] } }
\alternative{ \relative c''{ [g f f g ] e4 }
% urg, \partial 1;
\relative c''{ \partial 1; [g'8 f f g ] e2 } }
\repeat 2 { \relative c''{
[bes8 a g a] [bes d e f] | [g a, f' a,] [e' a, cis a] |
[bes a g a] [bes g'] [ f d ] | [cis d e d ] cis4-\prall a |
[bes8 a g a] [bes d e f] }}
\alternative { \relative c'''{ [g a, f' a,] [e' a, cis a] |
[a' g g f] [f e e d] | [d cis d e ] cis4-\prall a }
\relative c''{
[a'8 g f a] [g f e g] | [f e d f] [e d cis a] |
[bes d f gis] a4 }}
}
\paper{}
\midi{\tempo 4 = 220;}
}

What about:
\score{
<
\type Staff \notes { c ~ c ~ c ~ c }
\type Lyrics \lyrics { bla2. __ _ }
>
}
Nice patch, thanks!
