Well, this change here is basically minimally-invasive and only
concerned with LilyPond's default Midi generation.  My involvement with
the articulate script has been minimal, mostly trying to keep it working
when music representation changed.

If articulate.ly is supposed to get along with LilyPond's Midi
generation in the long haul, it will probably want to remove all
articulations that it interprets in order to avoid having them
interpreted doubly.  I have no idea whether it actually does that.

At any rate, this is an entirely different issue.
