I'm not sure what it does, like I said I just upgraded it to be compatible
with 2.17.95. Given your error I assume you're using 2.16.x, before a
certain change in syntax became usable, so changing it to

\override ChordName #'extra-spacing-width = #'(-1.25 . 1.25)

should work. If it displays well with it commented out though I don't see
any reason to leave it in.
