This code was originally written by Lukas Pietsch, and was on openlilylib purely as a by-product of my pwn abortive attempt to port it to a more recent version of lilypond.

The code has, in any case, been superseded by a more recent version that also will not compile because of missing code.

You can find a fuller explanation at: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2016-05/msg00212.html

If anyone has access to a working version of this code, or even a reliable way to contact Lukas, please speak up!  There are several of us on the list who would love to be able to use this work.
