I've tested your files on both my windows machine and the Linux box with
the broken font handling and both use about 54 seconds - the linux box
being had been bought in early 2011 though while the windows machine is
about 2 years old.

What is found is that lines like

  markup-system-spacing #'padding = #3

created an error in 2.19.50. Changing this and similar lines to 

  markup-system-spacing.padding = #3

cured that problem.


I have then created a replacement statement to be added to a rule in
convertrules.py to deal with that as follows:

    str = re.sub (r"(\w+[-\w]*) +#'(\w+[-\w]*) +=", r"\1.\2 =", str)

I don't know which lilypond version did change that syntax and I also
have don't know how to add that to the official set of convert-ly
rules.

Any pointer appreciated.

Kind regards,
Michael
