Is ly/property-init.ly online somewhere? I can't find a lilypond-doc package for Mac OS X, and I don't have any lilypond stuff in /usr/share/.

In the meantime, I tried \override MultiMeasureRestText #'no-spacing-rods = ##f in place of \fatText, but it did not work. I also found in the program reference online that, though TextScript takes #'no-spacing-rods, MultiMeasureRestText does not. Did I miss anything, or would this feature need to be added?

One more question on this issue:
The commands \fatText and \emptyText have no effect on either

        s1*0^\markup {whatever}
        R1*4

or

        R1*4^\markup {whatever}

How can I automatically apply the width of the markup string to the width of the multi-rest bar?

Take a look in ly/property-init.ly to find out what \fatText does, then change
the TextScript to MultiMeasureRestText.

ly/property.init.ly:
fatText = \override TextScript  #'no-spacing-rods = ##f
emptyText = \override TextScript  #'no-spacing-rods = ##t



I've added the following to the manual:

Warning!  This text is created by @code{MultiMeasureRestText}, not
@code{TextScript}.

{
\override TextScript #'padding = #5
R1^"low"
\override MultiMeasureRestText #'padding = #5
R1^"high"
}
