You're probably right about the #:properties syntax -- it should be
easy enough to swap make-line and display-nl with their default values
(make-justify-markup resp. #f) in the macro code to make it compile in
2.12 (which I don't have installed so I'm not gonna test it) ... ?

I think it's mostly connected to macro definitions, as a shortcut to
insert references into lists. If you write
\override #'(make-line . make-wordwrap-markup)
you get en error:
Wrong type to apply: make-wordwrap-markup
because then the value of the property is set to the SYMBOL
make-wordwrap-markup rather than FUNCTION referred to by that symbol.
As far as I know, `(make-line . ,make-wordwrap-markup) is the same as
(cons 'make-line make-wordwrap-markup), just like '(this that
the-other) is the same as (list 'this 'that 'the-other). The backtick
` is called "quasiquote" an the comma is "unquote".
Btw in that last comment in the file, it should read "\verse #words"
instead of "\verse \words" of course, please correct that if you put
it on LSR
Regards
Jakob.
