Hmmm - you are right. Is it possible to whiteout this small part
of the barlines?
I found out how to define a whiteout stencil, but it seems that it
is placed
*over* the segno sign, ignoring the order I arrange the stencils :-(
You need to manipulate the 'layer property to control which grobs are
whited-out. Have a look at the news for 2.13 for an example of using
the 'whiteout and 'layer properties:

Thanks for the link, but it seems to me that this can be done only as
a scheme override,
not while building up the stencil in bar-line.cc (there's a comment
in tie.cc, line 306-307,
which seems to claim exactly this situation, or am I wrong?).
You're quite right, 'whiteout and 'layer are grob properties so they
apply to all elements of a grob's stencil. I confess I don't know
exactly what you are trying to do here, but I'm not sure whiteout
is a good approach, even if it worked. Can you not draw the bar
line differently for this special case rather than whiting-out parts
of it?
