Sorry, I reduced the code too much! I started with the following
code trying to redefine a fretboard:
\version "2.18.0"
#default-fret-table
\chordmode {a:m7}
%#guitar-tuning
%#"5;x;5;5;5;x;"
#mandolin-tuning
#"o;o;o;o;"
theChords = \chordmode {
a:m7
}
\score {
<<
\theChords
>>
}
It does not work as intentionally planned! it shows me the notes
of the Am7 twice. But #"o;o;o;o;" should redefine Am7 and show
g-d-a-e (low to high)?

The answer is the same as it was yesterday on the -bug list: please
read the Notation Reference Section 2.4.1 on Common notation for
fretted strings, and particularly the subsection on Predefined fret
diagrams. In it, you will find a section describing the use of the
mandolin fretboard. Once you have worked that out, and if you still
have problems, come back and let us know. You may have thought the
problem was more complex that it really is, and gotten too deep into
the guts of fretboard markups. Your first step should always be to
start at the beginning of the Notation Reference, and look at the
first possible section you find. Generally, the common and easy
stuff is earlier in the manual than you might expect, and quite a
lot of things are easier than you might expect with LilyPond.
Cheers,
Colin
