I assume that you know about the manual override. (\property
stem{Left,Right}BeamSomethingICantRemember (see manual) )

By default LilyPond tries to "split" beams at points that have lowest
denomintor (in this case 1/4 gets precedence over 3/8).

A better solution is to have the initial split be tunable to allow
ternary split points.  This should not be a hard hack to do.  Look at
beaming.cc -- the code is not  complicated.
