I really, really, really don't understand why people insist on posting
"examples" that are incomplete and can't be tested without writing
additional code.  Anyway, you might try putting

hideNotes = { \hideNotes \override MultiMeasureRest #'transparent = ##t }
unHideNotes = { \revert MultiMeasureRest #'transparent \unHideNotes }

at the front (it is for _obvious_ reasons untested, and since
multimeasurerests are a bit funny, it might or might not work).  And
make a proper bug report.
