Don't use PostScript; do use the path stencil that LilyPond provides. Draw a parallelogram, not a line. The path command will automatically take care of the necessary rounding. But you might consider modifying the ly:beam::print code that is found in lily/beam.cc, or alternatively the Lookup::beam code that is found in lily/lookup.cc in order to add a dashed parameter and create multiple stencils.
