The following does not work:
<score raw="1">\version "2.16.2" \score { << << \new Staff { \key c \major \numericTimeSignature \time 4/4 \relative g' { <g>2 <g>4 <f> } } >> >> \layout { indent = #0 #(layout-set-staff-size 16) } } </score>
Error:
Unable to compile LilyPond input file: line 6 - column 25: GUILE signaled an error for the expression beginning here
Removing #(layout-set-staff-size 16) fixes it
