    This is not about a random addition.  \bar "||" is normally never at
    the start of a piece. The Page_turn_engraver interprets \bar "||"
    especially, allowing a page turn. This triggers a problem in the page
    breaking code, because the start of the score is treated separately.

Would the best response to this be to add a warning and/or check to see if 
\bar"||" is at the start of the piece, or to just list this as a known issue in 
the documentation?

Thanks,

Carl
