I tried this. At first attempt I've got:
While evaluating arguments to music->musicxml in expression
(music->musicxml score porttype):
/home/hermann/de-wolff-lilypond-git/build/out/share/lilypond/current/scm/musicxml.scm:2319:41:
Unbound variable: porttype

Likely a typo in this line
((ly:score? score) (music->musicxml score porttype)))))
->
((ly:score? score) (music->musicxml score port type)))))

Furthermore, apart from jaap-test-01-score.xml I've got an empty file
called jaap-test-01.xml
An intermediate file?

The terminal displays:
GNU LilyPond 2.21.0
Processing `jaap-test-01.ly'
Parsing...
generating and writing musicxml
remove first backup elements
reposition end barlines
remove empty items
order items
update header

done writing musicxml
Success: compilation successfully completed

I'd suggest to display the name of the file which is generated.
Probably implement a way the user can put-in a custom-name for the
.xml-file.

Nevertheless these are thoughts for some final polish, let me dig a bit
deeper into your code.
Alas, my time is very limited nowadays ...
