It's not a [MusiXTeX-]bug, but a [PMX-]feature. PMX "owns" \interstaff. It
uses it to fill each page as good as possible.
If you want fool PMX you must not use "\\interstaff{10}\" but
\\let\interstaffsav\interstaff\def\interstaff#1{}\interstaffsav{10}\
If you want to use \interstaff afterwards, you have to use \interstaffsav.
This may interfere with PMXs calculation to fill the pages best.
