But there is no \partial there in the source code, hence my problem. With
the source as shown in my original post the resulting PDF shows a partial
and bar lines struck through beams, which is absurd in this context.
Given your hints, I have dotted the last notes in the alternatives as this:
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\version "2.18.2"
% automatically converted by musicxml2ly from test.xml
\header {
source = "https://www.ibiblio.org/fiddlers/FARG_FAY.htm
Paul O'Shaughnessy"
encoder = "abc2xml version 226"
encodingdate = "2021-02-16"
composer = "Father Patrick Joseph Kelly"
title = "Lough Derg Jig"
}
\override Staff.BarLine.stencil = ##f
lough_derg_jig = \relative d' {
\tempo 4 = 120
\repeat volta 2 {
\key g \major \time 6/8 %%| % 1
\partial 8*1 d8^"PART A" %!*5 %%| % 3
g8 [ fis8 g8 ] b8 [ a8 g8 ] %%| % 4

fis4. a8 [ fis8 d8 ] %%| % 9
d'8 [ cis8 d8 ] fis8 [ e8 d8 ] %%| \barNumberCheck #10
c8 [ a8 fis8 ] g4
}
\break
\repeat volta 2 {
\partial 8*1 a8^"PART B" %!*5 %%| % 13
b4 d8 g8 [ d8 b8 ] %%| % 14

\alternative {

a8 [ fis8 d8 ] c8 b4 }
{d8 [ cis8 d8 ] fis8 [ e8 d8 ]

}
\break
\repeat volta 2 {

This compiles fine and the resulting PDF looks OK, sort of. But this is
cheating.
My understanding is that if a part starts with a \partial, then the last
bar should consist of 5 quavers, not six.
Remember my original route to this ly was: python abc2xml.py file.abc >
test.xml;musicxml2ly test.xml"
I have taken the liberty of attaching the PDF resulting from abcm2ps (which
is what I am trying to emulate). To me it seems more legal in that it
features 5 quavers in the alternatives.
In Part C, I have not yet worked out how to show the 1,2 and 3,4
alternatives. But that is another day's work.
BTW, I love Lilypond dearly and am so grateful for its tolerance of my
musical ignorance.

Thanks.
