This is better.

In older code I used:
  \time 11/16
  \set beatStructure = #'(4 3 4)

In even older LilyPond, one could use substructures for the beaming. This would 
be useful for say a Daichovo horo meter 9 = (2+2)+(2+3), meaning that the beat 
on the third 2 is more stressed than the second 2. In current LilyPond, it ends 
up as 9 = 4+2+3. It is not a big issue though.
