I don't think it is a bug; I think it is a misuse of the structure of
LilyPond. I believe that each main note gets at most a single grace
expression attached to it.
LilyPond sends a warning that there is something wrong; the warning could
probably be clearer.
I don't know why you say "the software should be able to parse it". What
does it mean to have two grace expressions attached to a single note.
What would \grace{a'}\appoggiattura{a'} c''4 mean? Why should
\slashedGrace be any different?
Thanks,
