Thanks Gilberto, that's simpler and better than anything I would have cooked up.  And by simply using:
\version "2.19.2"

barlines = {
  \set Timing.defaultBarType = ";"
  \repeat unfold 3 { s1 }
  \bar "|"
}

\relative c' {
  << 
     \repeat unfold 12 {c d e f}
     \\
     \repeat unfold 4 \barlines
  >>
}

I can make use of this technique in the middle of a much longer piece.
