MusicXML2Ly: Problem with minor chords

[Johan Vromans]

Hi,

In the attached XML, the minor D chord

      <harmony print-frame="no">
        <root>
          <root-step>D</root-step>
        </root>
        <kind text="mi">minor</kind>
      </harmony>

is translated into

  d:m5

and apparently not understood -- lilypond renders it as a major D chord
without warning.

Dm(maj7) becomes d:maj7m5.

A similar thing happens to half-diminished chords: Bm7b5 becomes b:dim5m7.

Is this a known problem? Googling for "musicxml2ly minor" did not return
anything relevant.
