Partial measure repeat alternatives

[Hans Aberg]

I wonder how to fix partial measure repeat alternatives, as in the  
snippet below. The MIDI unfold part causes bar-check error, and  
experimenting with \skip and spacer rests "s..." introduces unwanted  
extra space. The first section does not have an upbeat; only the one  
following it.

Take out the skips and make the second ending a partial measure:

...
    \alternative {
      { \times 2/3 {c8-. r16} | }
      { \partial 16*2 \times 2/3 {c8-. f,16} | }
    }
...

That did it. Thanks!

The latest notation.pdf has a comment on p. 50/61, "Known issues and  
warnings", saying that \partial is intended to only be used at the  
beginning of a piece. So this use in \alternative seems contradicting  
that.
