I finally figured out what it was that made lilypond generate "bad"
TeX when I was processing my score.

The problem was that Lookup::staff_brace calculated a longer (higher)
brace than existed in the feta-braces font. So it produced the scheme
expression (char 259), and TeX complained about the \char259 that went
into the TeX file.  Hard-coding it to something lower made it work,
but produced a brace that was to short.

I solved it by switching from \context GrandStaff to \context
StaffGroup.

What is the best context for writing orchestral scores?
