You gave us all the version numbers... except for LilyPond!  I'm going to assume 2.18.2.

Here is the way I got it to work.  Improvements, suggestions welcome:

%%%%%%%%

\version "2.18.2"

\language "english"

#(print-keys-verbose 'clarinet (current-error-port))

\relative {

  \time 4/4

  \key f \major

  \textLengthOn

  f4^\markup \override #'(size . 0.5) {

    \woodwind-diagram

      #'clarinet

      #'((cc . (one two three four five six))

         (lh . (thumb))

         (rh . (four)))

  }

    

  g4^\markup \override #'(size . 0.5) {

    \woodwind-diagram

      #'clarinet

      #'((cc . (one two three four five six))

         (lh . (thumb))

         (rh . ()))

  }

  

  a4^\markup \override #'(size . 0.5) {

    \woodwind-diagram

      #'clarinet

      #'((cc . (one two three four five))

         (lh . (thumb))

         (rh . ()))

  }

  

  bf4^\markup \override #'(size . 0.5) {

    \woodwind-diagram

      #'clarinet

      #'((cc . (one two three four))

         (lh . (thumb))

         (rh . ()))

  }

  

  c4^\markup \override #'(size . 0.5) {

    \woodwind-diagram

      #'clarinet

      #'((cc . (one two three))

         (lh . (thumb))

         (rh . ()))

  }

  

  d4^\markup \override #'(size . 0.5) {

    \woodwind-diagram

      #'clarinet

      #'((cc . (one two))

         (lh . (thumb))

         (rh . ()))

  }

  

  e4^\markup \override #'(size . 0.5) {

    \woodwind-diagram

      #'clarinet

      #'((cc . (one))

         (lh . (thumb))

         (rh . ()))

  }  

  f4^\markup \override #'(size . 0.5) {

    \woodwind-diagram

      #'clarinet

      #'((cc . (one))

         (lh . ())

         (rh . ()))

  }  

}

FWIW, the fingering shown for the last note (written F) is incorrect.

It would produce a written F# on clarinet.

To get an F, you'd need the last one to be:

  f4^\markup \override #'(size . 0.5) {
    \woodwind-diagram
      #'clarinet
      #'((cc . ())
         (lh . (thumb))
         (rh . ()))
  }
