I didn't find something directly related on the bug tracker.

Your code compiled with 2.12.3 will return correctly placed
VoltaBracket and BreathingSign.
In newer versions you may workaround by using
\once \override Score.VoltaBracket.shorten-pair = <number-pair>
I think it will fix placement of BreathingSign as well.


But mostly I tried to locate the first bad commit for the code below:

>>      }
>>       \repeat unfold 8 f16
>>   }

For now I can say it's before
cad8bec93311f8cbcc0b420fb5c93c0311df8979
which was in 2.13.4.

To get this version compiled I used old LilyDev2, with
gcc (Ubuntu 4.4.3-4ubuntu5.1) 4.4.3

But I failed to compile earlier versions
For example, checking out
47ca10364f3b6f64e2ecc5001be09753d509edfa
and running autogen.sh returns:

address@hidden ~/lilypond-git ((47ca103...))$ sh autogen.sh --noconfigure
processing .
Running autoconf ...
configure.in:59: warning: AC_REQUIRE: `AC_PROG_CC' was expanded before

So I'm stuck.

Any way to get this work?
