I am visiting my mother for X-mas, but just installed 1.4.9.uu1 for cygwin (on 
her machine).
Still problems with chords getting extra spaces - i.e. C /E instead of C/E, C 7 
instead of C7. German chords broken (accidentals gets displayed by name instead 
of symbol) - a bit strange cause I remember that I fixed that one once... - But 
from my current position I cannot send patches.
Bug-infected stuff shouldn't be in a stable release - the chords should be 
either disabled or working.
"Some time" I will have a closer look / thought about the whole chord-thing / 
lyrics thing... The cooperation between lily and tex does not work 
satisfactorily (spacing problems, primarily), and chords are currently not 
flexible enough. We need Chord contexts because they in contradiction to lyrics-
contexts transpose - but, well, I don't know...

Tnx, U2.
