Yes, using the chord.ly file I attached to my message, extracted from the
message as it came back through the mailing list, with the three-line
input cut and pasted from my message as it came back through the mailing
list, and the version of Lilypond I compiled from the sources in the file
lilypond-2.24.1.tar.gz downloaded from the lilypond.org Web site, I get
these messages:
GNU LilyPond 2.24.1 (running Guile 2.2)

Interesting. What's the provenance of your Lilypond executable - did you
also compile from source, or use a Fedora package?
I wonder if the issue could be with my Guile 2.2 installation, which I
also compiled from sources. I'm using Slackware, which does not have a
Guile 2.2 package, having skipped all the way to version 3. I had to
install Guile 2.2 over top of that in order to get a version of Lilypond
that would report itself as using Guile 2.2, but if the build was still
partly using Slackware's packaged Guile 3.0 somehow, that could explain
the difference in our results.
