Dear users,

There is a bug in the Mac version where the Re half-note in \aikenHeads renders 
as a quarter note in 2.16, and the problem just swaps for the whole note in 
2.17. This has been reported to the bug list, but I'm wondering how to work 
around it in the mean time. Here is a minimal version of what I'm trying to fix:

\version "2.16.2"
\relative e' {
        \aikenHeads
        \key d \major
        < e a >2\fermata
}

On Mac Lilypond 2.16 that E comes out a quarter note. To override the note 
head, I'm thinking notehead.s0re is the one I want (from this list). I've been 
trying to sort it out myself, but is still new to me. I'm thinking of using 
\tweak #'glyph-name = , but I'm apparently not putting the string value in 
correctly. I was hoping to find out the proper format for a string from the 
4.2.3 Types of Properties chart, but I don't see strings on that list. So maybe 
my problem is just not putting the string in correctly. I've done some hunting, 
and I think I found some examples that do it this way: #"string". Is that right?

Any solution would be appreciated, whether a bit of code to automatically fix 
\aikenHeads 2nd interval half note in each instance, or whether just a \tweak 
that I can put in manually each time. So far, it's not but one or two instances 
in each piece, which I could manage without it being automatic. Any additional 
learning about entering string values in \override and \tweak would also be 
helpful.

-Garrett
