#(ly:make-moment 11/10) looks rather fractional to me, and the
documentation for \featherDurations reads
In the following example the eight 16th notes occupy exactly the
same time as a half note, but the first note is one half as long as
the last one, with the intermediate notes gradually lengthening.
The first four 32nd notes gradually speed up, while the last four
32nd notes are at a constant tempo.
\override Beam.grow-direction = #LEFT
\featherDurations #(ly:make-moment 2/1)
{ c16[ c c c c c c c] }
\override Beam.grow-direction = #RIGHT
\featherDurations #(ly:make-moment 2/3)
{ c32[ d e f] }
% revert to non-feathered beams
\override Beam.grow-direction = #'()
{ g32[ a b c] }
which also uses fractional values. Now LilyPond does not use GUILE's
"arbitrary precision" rationals, so it will likely bomb out sooner than
strictly necessary when the numerators/denominators become uglily large,
see <URL:http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=3085>.
Other than that, you should be able to get along fine.
