The default rule in LilyPond is to do this for 11 measures or
longer, see
section "Multi measure rests" in the manual for information on how to
change this value.


For the term "church rests", Finale for example simply says "use
symbols for multimeasure rests up to nine measures"


Hindemith's book has the diagram above, so it is clear that he would use it for rests of length 9 measures.
