If you've updated your version of lilypond, did you run convert-ly ?
If not, what did you change last?  You must have made some change 
between the last time you compiled it and when it stopped compiling.
Are there any error messages displayed?  If there's any line numbers 
mentioned, double-check the area around those lines -- sometimes the 
actual error occurs a few lines away from the reported problem.

Why not use \repeat ?  Anyway, if it's just a one-line example that 
doesn't display a bar line, please send the example to the list.
