First of all let me say that I appreciate everyone's patience with me.  I have 
learned more that I thought I would from this discussion.

Second, it seems to me that this topic is much more complicated that it ought 
to be.

Finally, I still think that the following statement in section 1.4 of the 
Notation documentation:

volta   ... If the repeat is at the beginning of a piece, a repeat bar line is 
only printed at the end of
                the repeat.

needs modification because it is misleading.  It implies that if the repeat is 
not at the beginning of a piece, a repeat bar will be printed at the beginning 
of the repeat.  That implication is evidently false.
