Hi Immanuel I worked around the guile problem by upgrading my portfile to 1.8.3 and manually adding #undef HAVE_STAT64 in config.h after the configure phase. However lilypond will complain about not beeing able to dlopen libguile-srfi-srfi-1-v-3.so. I solved this problem by just setting

John The usual cause of this behaviour is because LilyPond cannot find a suitable place to break the line. Line breaks can occur only at 'complete' bars, ie where the last note(s) in the bar in all staves end(s) at the automatically inserted barline. If any note carries over no break can take
