Raised 6th step in figured bass

I'm currently transcribing a Mozart piece with figured bass. In several 
places, the harmony uses a raised 6th, which is typically notated (also in 
the hand-engraved Mozart editions I have available) as a 6 with a backward 
slash through the number. Somehow I seem to be unable to find the 
corresponding lilypond bass figure (see 
http://www.robertkelleyphd.com/FiguredBass.pdf, the sixth figure in the 
second column on page 2).

In particular <6/> produces a slash in the wrong direction (meaning a 
diminished), <6\> or <6\\ > don't work. Looking at parser.yy, it seems that 
the only allowed modifications are \+, / and !, but no backward slash.

How can I generate the raised 6th figure using a backward slash through the 6?

Thanks,
Reinhold
