Ouch...
The problem with '&' is that it fails on lyrics:
this works:
\new Lyrics \lyricmode { a&s; }
but this doesn't:
\new Lyrics \lyricmode { &s; }
There is the same kind of issues with almost every easy-to-type special
character:
<at> % $ # \ / < > ^ ~ + = * ; ( ) [ ] { }
This is the exact list of every possible escape characters for a french
keyboard under linux:
§ £ µ € ¤ ¹ ² ' ` © ¨ ø Ø ≤ ≥ « » “ ” ↓ ¬ × ÷ ¿ ¡ ∕ ⋅ …
Of course, only a few of them are available under windows:
§ £ µ € ¤ ' `
If we consider US, british, german and spanish keyboards, this only
gives these two very bad characters:
' `
The best solution may be to solve this lyric problem first :\

New modified regtest attached. I've cut it down to one line, two bars
per section so six in total. (I know you want minimal, but cutting it
down to one note per section feels a bit two much, and two minims looked
naff.) The other thing is, the new regtest doesn't have N/C, which
doesn't seem to matter, but that was almost the first thing I thought
needed checking when I first saw the chord-mode documentation I based my
sample and reg-test on.
