You can do it yourself: For accidentals, LilyPond divides the whole note, and
in makam.ly they divide the whole note into 9 parts, so it is 6*9 = 54 ET
compared to E53 in AEU notation. Then the sharp is in reality the value 1/2, so
the middle microtonal accidentals should be 1/2 - 1/9 and 1/2 + 1/9, I think.
Then maybe those with 1/18 should be changed to 1/9. Try making a copy of
makam.ly in your home directory with a different name, because LilyPond looks
in the system directory first, and change the values.
Alternatively, one can set it to the correct E53 using Graham Breeds
regular.ly, if there is need for a correct E53 MIDI file output.
