Let's just cheat.

\version "2.19.52"

\score {
  {
    \mark "2nd time 8va"
    \repeat volta 2 {c' d' e' f'}
    \alternative {{a a a a}{\transposition c'' b b b b \transposition c'}}
  }
  \layout {}
  \midi {}
}

Well, you probably want to have midi-expanded repeats with that, but you
get the drift.
