Aha, I see it in scm/markup-macros.scm. And indeed this works:

\version "2.18.0"

#(define-markup-command (smallish layout props text) (markup?)
  "Not quite as small..."
  (interpret-markup layout props
    #{\markup \override #'(font-size . -0.5) { \normal-text #text }#}))

\markup \small "test"
\markup \smallish "test"
\header { title = #(make-smallish-markup "test") }
