Idiot (me). I forgot that `\input mtx` does its own `input pmx` which
would then make the later `input pmx` bail out before redefining anything.

I am back at my home machine now and have found the score (written
in 2004).  The trick is to put a strut in the bar number:

   \let\Writebarno\writebarno
   \def\writebarno{\vbox to 40pt{}{\Writebarno}}

Thus, whatever PMX is doing in its \writebarno, the actual vertical
space occupied will be at least 40pt.
