Meanwhile you can take inspiration from this snippet - maybe it'll help you:

\relative c'' {
  c32[ c

       %% WARNING: #'beaming is written, so this
       %% property can not be shared between objects. Always use
       %%  \once.
       %%

       \once \override Stem
       #'beaming = #(cons (list   1 2) (list 0 2 4))
       c
       \once \override Stem
       #'beaming = #(cons (list 0 2 4) (list 0 1 4))
       c c c]
}
