I made a version that allows one to switch to Helmholtz-Ellis notation, with 
arrow accidentals: Just uncomment the line
  %    \bravuraOn
and recompile, making sure that the files definitions.ily and smufldata.ily are 
present, along with the Bravura.otf font.

With the work that Torsten Hämmerle mentioned, somewhere in LilyPond 2.21, 
Smufl will not be needed.

So the extra work to get this feature is minimal.

What does this refer to?

It calls the version of turkish-makam.ly with your first name suffixed.

You have:
  #(ly:parser-set-note-names parser makamPitchNames)
In later versions of LilyPond, the "parser" part has been deprecated, so it 
should be:
  #(ly:parser-set-note-names makamPitchNames)

turkish-makam.ly
