Quite right! There is no such thing as \followrests in 2.6 though? (I 
couldn't it in 
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.6/Documentation/user/lilypond.html)

I've gone through and manually placed the rests explicily. Throuble is 
now, after running my scordatura program, the rests sometimes get 
placed on spaces in the staff which makes it look like minim rests and 
semibreve ones are swapped, but actually they are just being typeset 
half a line off (like I asked for).

I think it'll be best to tackle this by hand for the moment. I'll send 
you a PDF of what I've got so far if you're interested...
