Oops.  I oversimplified the example; after looking at so many erroneous 
bar-lines, apparently I saw correct ones and thought they were wrong!

  \version "2.16.1"
  << \new Staff {
    \once\set Staff.whichBar = "|:"
    b2 b2 b2 b2
    \once\set Staff.whichBar = ":|:"
    b2 b2 b2 b2
    \bar"|." }
  \new Staff R1*4 >>

  << \new Staff {
    b2 b2 b2 b2
    \once\set Staff.whichBar = "|:"
    b2 b2 b2 b2
    \bar"|." }
  \new Staff R1*4 >>

Use an explicit \new Staff to avoid the segfault --- which I suppose is a 
separate bug.
