Probably a separate issue, but when I do:

\version "2.17.30"

mybarcheck = { | }

{ a \mybarcheck }

I get

GNU LilyPond 2.17.30
Processing `foo.ly'
Parsing...
Interpreting music...
foo.ly:3:14: warning: barcheck failed at: 1/4
mybarcheck = 
             { | }
Preprocessing graphical objects...
Finding the ideal number of pages...
Fitting music on 1 page...
Drawing systems...
Layout output to `foo.ps'...
Converting to `./foo.pdf'…

Is there anyway to have the parser spit out the line number of the bar check 
failure instead of the line number of the definition of the variable?
