It's not just the bar check.
The following snippet (one score block) compiles fine:

\version "2.16.2"

music = {
  | d
}

\score {
  \new Staff { \music }
  \layout{}
  \midi {}
}


while this (two score blocks) fails:

music = {
  | d
}

\score {
  \new Staff { \music }
  \layout{}
}

\score {
  \music
  \midi {}
}

The right mailing list to report bugs is address@hidden
However, I'm not sure this is a bug, as there's no point in starting a 
music with a bar check. On the other hand I think that we should expect 
lilypond to print a warning in this case.

Comments from developer appreciated.
Thanks
