-. * don't take Dimension_cache::offset in Dimension_cache::extent

+. * chord tonic: placement of accidental  C#, Cb (from scm and C++)
+. * note head on stem err msg in dutch.
+. * why need to run -C mf twice?
+. * here's no difference at all in output. When either is jacked up to 7.0,
+everything works and matches up; when either is set just a bit above the
+default 5.0 (5.4 is what I was hoping to use), stems miss note heads. So
+it's some sort of a numerical (truncation/roundoff) problem.
