Greetings,
you’re right. You can fix it by adding this at the top of your file:
%%%%
\include "makam.ly"
#(set! language-pitch-names
(append language-pitch-names
(list `(makam . ,makamPitchNames))))
#(set! standard-alteration-glyph-name-alist
(append standard-alteration-glyph-name-alist
makamGlyphs))
\language "makam"
%%%%
I’ll edit the makam.ly file itself to include that in the next LilyPond release.
Even with this modification, however, chord notation remains limited
for non-semitones accidentals: for example the following example works
(more or less) for NoteNames, but not very well for ChordNames:
%%%%
music = { <c efk gbm>}
<<
\new Staff \music
\new NoteNames \music
\new ChordNames \music
>>
%%%%
Cheers,
