Thanks William!  That works nicely.  Curiously, the bug seemed to only be 
manifest at the very start of a piece. A multi-measure section of silence later 
in the song was willing to "compress".

Dear John,

If you change

\repeat unfold 4 { ""1 }

to

""1*4

like in the attached example, the measure compression appears to work.

Does this fix the problem?
