I was also interseted in this issue and just breaking into Scheme (Lambda 
baffled me for a while). 

I can find references to bar-number and measure-position but not 
alternative-number and extra. I am guessing that they are Lilypond
internals - is this the case?

Also many scores I have "engraved" have repeats that end and start within bars. 
I seem to need to use \partial within the score and
not just at the beginning. My logs are laced with warnings but the scores print 
and the midi output repeats as required. Is there
any way to stop these warnings or should I just "live with it"?
