Issue 548: \transposition produces different pitches depending on the 
notenames language
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=548

New issue report by v.villenave:

The only way to make this snippet work as expected
-- i.e. the two parts sound as a unison --
is to write it using default notenames.

If you uncomment the \include, Finnish notenames are used,
and you cannot obtain the same result: both "bb" and "heses",
which are the Finnish for "b-flat", result in a wrong transposition
(in the MIDI output you can hear a fis instead of a g, and therefore
there is no unison).

\version "2.11.34"
%\include "suomi.ly"

\score{
<<
{           g'4 g'4 g'4 g'4       }
{
          \key d \major
          \transposition bes  % standard b-flat
          %\transposition bb    % b-flat in Finnish
          %\transposition heses % alternative b-flat in Finnish
          a'4 a'4 a'4 a'4
      }
  >>
  \layout {}
  \midi {}
}
