Hello everyone: 

Thanks to everyone who responded.

To avoid any possible copy and paste errors, I am attaching the example in a
file.

I checked over the file and compiled it again. Lilypond compiles the file
successfully without any errors or warnings.

It is possible to add padding around the markup?

Thanks for your help.

This is a very basic LilyPond syntax error, so it certainly doesn't have
anything to do with the particular version. Did you correctly paste the
entire code? Are all brackets correctly matched?

Best, Simon
\version "2.19.35"
\language "english"
global = {
  \key c \major
  \time 4/4
}
rightOne = \relative c'' {
  \global
  c c c c
  c c c c
}
rightTwo = \relative c' {
  \global
   e e e_\markup {\whiteout {\fontsize#-3 {ad libitum}}}  e
   e e e e
}
leftOne = \relative c' {
  \global
  g g g g
  e e e e
}
leftTwo = \relative c {
  \global
  c c c c
  e e e e
}
\score {
  \new PianoStaff \with {
    instrumentName = "Pno."
    shortInstrumentName = "Pno."
  } <<
    \new Staff = "right" << \rightOne \\ \rightTwo >>
    \new Staff = "left" { \clef bass << \leftOne \\ \leftTwo >> }
  >>
}
