No, that's wrong. In the meantime Christian Mondrup sent me the complete
mtx-source so that I could see that pmx makes the error if a volta goes over
a line break. So I could modify the above example to reproduce the error:
1 1 4 4 4 4 0 0
1 3 20 0
t
./
% Volta without a line break works fine.
d24d a4 |
V1-3 d24d a4 /
m3400 Vx c2d Rr /
m4400 V4 d2d a4 /
Vx c2 d4 c |
c2 d4 c /
% A linebreak within a volta reproduces the error
L2
d24d a4 | d24d a4 | d24d a4 |
V1-3 d24d a4 /
m3400 Vx c2d Rr /
m4400 V4 d2d a4 /
Vx c2 d4 c |
c2 d4 c /
A circumvention for the original case is to insert a forced line break
in front of the first volta.

PS: Another small problem remains: the volta-line and the bar number overlap.
This can be supressed by "\\def\shiftbarno{0pt}\" overriding Don's favorite
settings; speaking M-Tx: "%% \\def\shiftbarno{0pt}\"
PPS: With my newer editions I use a more general change of the bar number
writing, which does not need so much vertical space for the barnumber
-- now speaking MusiXTeX (out of mymusix.tex):

With PMX you need then
\\def\raisebarno{4\internote}\
\\def\shiftbarno{0pt}\
\\let\writebarno\mywritebarno\
