That's a comment for the sake of the editor.  It is not relevant for
LilyPond.

I suggest you look for _structural_ differences in the respective
included files.  How is the music organized with your Mozart, how is it
organized with your Bruckner?  LilyPond does not mind the different
composers, but you obviously have a difference in what constructs your
repective music passages appear in.

Are they all in a \score of their own?  Do those \score constructs have
a \header of their own?
