Hi,

> At the time i needed this note, it was NOT available in lilypond.

Although I don't have an older version of Lilypond to check against,  
I image my function would have worked for several versions now.
In other words, this workaround has probably been available in  
Lilypond for several years, if not longer.

That issue simply indicates that Lilypond doesn't have a native  
double-breve glyph, not that Lilypond can't *look* like it has a  
native double-breve glyph!  ;-)
My point is, I would be very surprised if the list you have of  
"things Lilypond can't do" actually contains *anything* Lilypond  
can't do.

Best regards,
Kieren.
