\version "2.19.80"

% I have to admit, I don't understand what this means musically.
% Seems like either this should be 2 slurs, not elided, or a single slur
over all 5 notes.
\score {
    \new Staff <<
        \fixed c'' { e4*4/5( d c ) ( d e ) }
    >>
    \layout { }
}


%  Working with the confusing example as-is,
%  I'm not sure how to do this globally, but the normal \shape command can
be made to work.
slurTweak = { \shape #'((0.3 . 0) (0 . 0) (0 . 0) (-0.3 . 0)) Slur }

\score {
    \new Staff <<
        \fixed c'' {
            %  The trick seems to be to add the second tweak before the
first slur ends
            \slurTweak e4*4/5( d \slurTweak c ) ( d e )
        }
    >>
    \layout {
    }
}
