Hi again, thanks to 
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2015-10/msg00399.html
I can now close the volta bracket with this undocumented feature,
\allowVoltaHook, thus avoiding inkscape postprocessing.

Be aware, however, that \allowVoltaHook is global and unresettable,
at least at the level of \score. (I don't use \book myself.)

I've also tidied up the code I sent previously, getting rid of the
warning by removing the redundant (volta #f). Staff, \score and \time
are also not required as they only redefine the defaults.
Score.VoltaBracket.shorten-pair might be useful too. I've tried to
indicate that the barlines both *terminate* the alternative part-
measures by shifting the hooks.

(I'm not convinced that part-measures are a good idea, but that's not
my call.)

Cheers,
David.
