Two years? You are too late :-)
You have to define \everystaff _before_ using \startpiece. This requires
to replace "&" by "\nextinstrument"
\instrumentnumber 4\generalmeter{\meterC}\generalsignature{-3}%
\setclef1{\bass}\songtop4\songbottom1
\def\everystaff{\znotes\nextinstrument\zchar{-6}{\normtype \kern -2\Interligne 8}\en}%
\bigaccid\startmuflex\startpiece\systemnumbers%
\Notes\hl N&\hl k&\znh g\lhu f&\hl{^i}\en\alaligne%
\Notes\hu J&\hl j&\zhu g\hu e&\hl j\en\bar%
\mulooseness0\endpiece\endmuflex\eject\bye
Since some time the better solution is:
\settrebleclefsymbol2\treblelowoct
So you see, the problem wasn't there AND it is solved since some month.
That's MusiXTeX, it's authors and the community of the members of the
mailing list.
Problem 1a:
Nevertheless there is a problem in that area: \def\atnextline{...}
does not work for the 1st line, although it is defined before using
\startpiece.
\input musixtex
\hsize=50mm
\def\atnextline{\znotes\roffset5{\fl g}\roffset4{\fl e\fl{'e}}\en}%
%--\def\everystaff{\znotes\roffset2{\fl g}\roffset1{\fl e\fl{'e}}\en}%
\bigaccid\startmuflex\nobarnumbers\startpiece\notes\sk\en
%--\def\everystaff{}%
\def\atnextline{\znotes\roffset5{\sh g}\roffset4{\sh e\sh{'e}}\en}%
\bar\notes\sk\en\linegoal 2\endpiece\endmuflex\vfill\eject\bye

I've only a very limited knowledge on setting lyrics with MusiXTeX.
So I would use MTx to attack the problem.

Meta-PS: As administrator of the list I'm figthing against these messages
which appear twice in the list since some days. These message are
somehow re-sent. As proposed by a [email protected] I've
already removed the three users <foo>@...fidonet.org, because
they must have been subscribed by a spammer or victim of <iyfnh>.
I'm not sure whether this has helped.
So I ask the list members: if someone can give me a hint, how I
can find out the reason for the resent, this would be very welcome!
