This isn't cutting hair in the least.  Granted, I remember discussing
this a few months ago.  But if there's anything like this that you're
not clear about, please ask.

Yes.  Well, run through convert-ly.  This may or may not automatically
perform all the updates; it depends on convert-ly.

Yes, but this is unavoidable.  Lilypond GIT needs to compile with the
specific version of lilypond.  The best we can do is run the snippets
through convert-ly.

If you're going to ask about upgrading LSR, bear in mind that this
involves an unknown amount of work from Sebastiano, and that 2.11.34
contains known serious bugs.  Based on the reaction to .35, I might
propose .36 as a candidate for LSR-upgrading.

The tentative plan is to upgrade LSR to a 2.12 beta release, then
upgrade it again to 2.12.2 or .3 -- ie a stable 2.12.
