And it seems that the -e0 option has been recommended for
dvips on musixtex output for a very long time. See
Section 26.3 of musixdoc.pdf
Bottom-line:
If you don't use the musixtex.lua script, add -e0 as an
option to dvips to preclude the dvips "feature" (i.e.,
bug) of adjusting pixels

Thanks Hiroaki. As it happens, -e0 has been added to the
"default" dvips call in the musixtex.lua script since 2015!
I not sure I ever knew why :+)

On some systems the situation is reversed: -D 300 is good,
-D 600 is not. It seems -D 1200

I can reproduce the misalignment
I've had reports that musixvbm generates beams with
misaligned note stems. See the attached. However, I can't
reproduce this on my system. If you can on the attached
source file, please let me know what versions of musixtex
and dvips you are using.

And if I zoom into the dvi, I see the same discontinuity. So
the problem *is* in musixtex but can be exacerbated by an
old dvips. Sigh.

Jean-Pierre: There is a discontinuity between L and M in
your PDF (generated using dvips from 2013)
Does everybody see a gap between J and F and an overlap between M and L in
the 16th notes?
The problem in the same in the PostScript file but it is not present in the
dvi file.
