Issue 5872: convert-ly rule for 2.19.39 as cleanup for issue 4800
That issue made previously valid and promoted code invalid without
proper replacement.
Property assignments of the form
staffgroup-staff-spacing #'basic-distance = #15
are converted to
staffgroup-staff-spacing.basic-distance = #15
for various paper or layout spacing variables.
The problem is that this convert-ly rule was done rather late and so you
need at least convert-ly from 2.21.0 to get this right. So if you used
an older convert-ly for getting your version across 2.19.39, this
convert-ly fix will no longer get applied.
The good news should be that the given score should work in 2.21.x+
again assuming that you convert it all the way from its ancient version
with the new convert-ly.
Of course it would also work in 2.20 if you use the latest convert-ly to
go just up to 2.20. But who does that?
