Feathered beams with tuplet fractions

[Qian Li-3]

Why does lilypond choke on feathered 8:10 notes but handles 4:6 no problem? The first example works (even the slur works), but the second doesn't.

Thanks.
Qian

\times 4/6{ 
\featherDurations #(ly:make-moment 6 8 ) {   
\once \override Beam #'grow-direction = #RIGHT
 bf16 ( ef g bf' g ef  
}
}
cs,2)

%second example

\times 8/10{
\featherDurations #(ly:make-moment 6 8 ) {
\once \override Beam #'grow-direction = #RIGHT
as'16 ( bf cs bs as bs as g fs g }
}
fs4)

Neither example works since it does not have lilypond syntax.  Apart
from that, you set the featherDurations to 6/8 in the second example.

As David said, the syntax is wrong.

Both examples work fine if you prefix them with

\include "english.ly"
\score { {

and terminate with } }
