because it is not just adding features, it is also breaking all old scores.
2.4 should properly compile all files created with 2.x which won't be the
case if I understood well.

If people are using these fonts elsewhere or simply if they want to edit an
older pdf, the new fonts will break it if they replace the old ones. I
think the new fonts should be called something like "greciliae new" or
"greciliae 3" for compatiblity with several years of works already created
with Gregorio. I think it's a very very bad idea to give 2 fonts the same
name if they don't give the same result.
