Hi BB,
I won't answer your question, I'm no developer, question but here's how I
would right your tab :

\version "2.17.23"

MyTuning = \stringTuning <g, d g b d'>

\new TabStaff {
  \key g \major
  \set TabStaff.stringTunings = #MyTuning
  \tabFullNotation
  \stemDown
  {
    %1
    \times 2/3 { <d\5>4^"P" (c)^"H" (<d\5>) }
    <d\5>4^"P" (c)
    %2
    \times 2/3 { gis'4^"H" (f')^"P" (g') }
    g8^"H" (a) <d b g>8 g
  }
}

As you can see, I find predefind open strings useless and so is the
\relative function for fretted strings instument.
Cheers,
Pierre
