I quote from the changelog:

<<
2003 April 12
abc2midi assumes the ratio of 2:1 for long/short notes
in broken rhythms specified with angle brackets (eg.
c>d), Though this can be changed using the %%MIDI ratio
command, it is inconvenient for many users since it is
necessary to edit each tune in the abc file in order to
effect this change. A new command parameter -RS (ratio
standard) changes default ratio to 3:1 which is the
standard music notation. The new parameter still allows
the %%MIDI ratio command to override the default. The
change was incorporated in event_init() of store.c.
>>

It would still be better if this -RS parameter would be
on by default, since the default behaviour is a
violation of the ABC standard, but at least this new
parameter exists.

Seymour, can it be completely fixed?
