Subject: musicxml2ly from sibelius
A composer recently gave me a messy part he'd prepared with Sibelius,
and I asked him for a musicxml file on the off chance that it might
work in Lilypond and I could clean it up. With Lilypond 2.15.36
(Slackware 13.37, x86), I get the error below along with no output
file. I tried the prebuilt lilypond stable as well, and the only
difference in the console output are line numbers in the musicxml2ly
script. Should I send this to the bugs list, or is there something I
can do as a user (without access to Sibelius) to improve the
likelihood of getting this to work?

I'm a bit surprised you have musicxml from Sibelius. As far as I was aware,
it doesn't export into _any_ useful interchange format, including musicxml.
How big is the XML file?
