Probably Dan will be able to say more about this; I just want to give a=20
maybe concise data point:
\version "2.22" music =3D {} #(define ZERO (ly:music-length music))=20
#(pretty-print (equal? ZERO ZERO-MOMENT)) #(pretty-print (ly:moment-div=20
ZERO ZERO-MOMENT)) #(pretty-print (ly:moment-div ZERO ZERO))=20
#(pretty-print (ly:moment-div ZERO-MOMENT ZERO)) #(pretty-print=20
(ly:moment-div ZERO-MOMENT ZERO-MOMENT))
yields with 2.22.1:
#t #<Mom 0> #<Mom 0> #<Mom 0> #<Mom 0> and with 2.26.0: #t #<Mom=20
infinityGinfinity> #<Mom 0> #<Mom 0> #<Mom nanGinfinity>
