Thanks. That helped. But now I'm facing another problem: I had some
fermata in the score. With v1.4.12 I just had to do d4-\fermata on the
soprano notes and e4-\fermata on the bass notes to get the fermata above
the soprano-notes an below the bass-notes. 

With the change to v.1.6.5 I didn't change the fermata but the one that
used te be below the bass notes is now above the tenor-notes and is
interfering with the stem of the tenoer-note. 

I can't figure out how I have to tell lilypond to put the fermata as it
used to put it with v1.4.12. 

I know from the manual that there is the posibility to tell the
direction but I don't know the correct syntax for it. 

Another question:

I've the lyrics between the upper and the lower staff. There are 3
verses and i added them with different stanzas. But there is a part (the
refrain) that should be at the (vertically centerd) position of the
second stanza and should have "1.-3." as prefix that should appear under
the \bar "||" that separates the verses and the refrain.

I tried 

"1.-3. Frie" -- de 

but then the piece in quotes gets centers under the note for "Frie"
instead of getting the 1.-3. under the bar and only "Frie" under it's
note.
