Yes, I sent this e-mail about one hour ago but appeared on my Mail 
window just now.  The reason for my mistake was, when I tried this first 
idea...

\score {
    \new Staff {
        \relative c' {
            << { c1 ~ } { s4 s4\< s4\! \> s4\! } >> c4 c c c
        }
    }
}

...I forgot that using << at the very beginning of a score is 
discouraged!  Adding "\new Voice" just before "\relative" makes this 
example works as well.

Thank you,
  Maurizio.
