Mike did not bother explaining his deductions, but it would appear to me
his claim would be that both are the same problem, but in 2.16.1 it
blows up in a different place (temporary code from Mike) rather than the
previous place.  So the problematic file would, when debugged by Mike,
still throw errors in current LilyPond, just completely different errors
from what the original poster reported for 2.16.1.

So the 2010 problem is still around, it is just that the error
tracebacks moved to Mike's code in 2.16 and have now moved on or back.
