I disagree.
As soon as I commented every occurance of japanese in all relevant
files I got the error on orchestra.ly with
make LANGS='' doc

Next I revised orchestra.ly.
- I deleted some custom-context-definitons and put them directly via
\with into the elevant contexts
- multiple settings of \layout were summarized
- numerous uses of \set instrumentName ... etc were put into \with as well
The last point may be the most likely candidate for the problems with
orchestra.ly, but I'm only guessing.

Anyway, with this I got a successful run of `make LANGS='' doc'

A diff is attached.

I'll now checkout a fresh branch from master, apply Hosoda-san's patch from
https://codereview.appspot.com/298320043/
change orchestra.ly as before.
Try a full `make doc' and report back later.

I suspect we have two problems (at least).

It's a terrible situation.
But let me take the opportunity to express my greatest thankfulness
and deepest respect for the fabulous work you always do.

All the best,
