Arrows on lyric extenders aren't supported, unfortunately.  However...

See the attached.  I've translated the print function for
LyricExtender into Scheme and added the possibility of arrows.

You simply override LyricExtender stencil with the new procedure.

Note that you can alter arrow width and length.

I don't know if I've plugged in the right quantities, but the results
look right.
