Upgrade to version 1.8.1 or newer and read the manual,
http://lilypond.org/doc/v1.8/Documentation/user/out-www/lilypond/Beaming.html
especially about the property allowBeamBreak
It's a good habit to always specify what LilyPond version you use
when sending a question to the mailing list.

i am attempting to typeset a piece with many cross-barline beamings. in
some places, there is insufficient opportunity, while avoiding
beamed-across barlines, to find line breaks. i get a warning: "Could not
find line breaking that satisfies constraints" and the lines run off the
page, because there are too many consecutive measures with cross-barline
beaming.

i would like to be able to make the cross-barline beams hang incomplete on
either side of line breaks. (in fact, this piece will be pretty much
impossible to typeset without being able to do that.)

is there any way to work around this limitation?
