Re: Problem with barcheck
As Jay pointed out, \times 2/3 {d8 g a } will occupy the time of two eighth-notes, not three. Hence the barcheck fails because there is an eighth-note's worth of time remaining in your first measure (and 2 1/8's missing in the second.)

However this makes no sense in 6/8 - it's musical tautology! :) Are you copying from a real score or just making something up yourself?
