I've used ^"\\textsharp" and ^"\\textflat", respectively, see
the example file mutopia/gallina.ly.
However, now with the new font selection mechanism of version
1.3.100 and newer, it should be possible to do something like
(untested):
^\textscript #'(music (named "accidentals-1"))
and
^\textscript #'(music (named "accidentals--1"))
respectively. 


(Implementors: This mechanism calls for more user-friendly 
names of each symbol, the information is already in the .mf 
files, one way would be to generate Scheme association lists 
for the symbol names from the .mf files.)
