Thanks!  I went with Vaughan’s suggestion — in one song, the LilyPond 
tagline forced the score into 3 pages, and the null markup allowed page 
3 to be completely blank except for the tagline.  With the empty-music 
approach, the last system ends up on page 3, as it ought.

Thanks too to Harm and David for the explanations of why ##f is not a 
good expression to have between scores.  It used to work, and I think I 
had come to expect it to work a lot like 'nil (and BTW I did try #'nil, 
with no improvement), but I see how it’s different from setting a 
subtitle to ##f.

It’s also nice to see that per-bookpart copyrights are working in 2.18, 
which I hadn’t tested since 2.14 (in which they were just hidden).

Thanks once again to everyone who helps make this software and this 
community so excellent.
