Sorry, I reduced the code too much! I started with the following code
trying to redefine a fretboard:
\version "2.18.0"
#default-fret-table
\chordmode {a:m7}
%#guitar-tuning
%#"5;x;5;5;5;x;"
#mandolin-tuning
#"o;o;o;o;"
theChords = \chordmode {
a:m7
}
\score {
<<
\theChords
>>
}
It does not work as intentionally planned! it shows me the notes of
the Am7 twice. But #"o;o;o;o;" should redefine Am7 and show g-d-a-e
(low to high)?

The answer is the same as it was yesterday on the -bug list: please read
the Notation Reference Section 2.4.1 on Common notation for fretted
strings, and particularly the subsection on Predefined fret diagrams. In
it, you will find a section describing the use of the mandolin
fretboard. Once you have worked that out, and if you still have
problems, come back and let us know. You may have thought the problem
was more complex that it really is, and gotten too deep into the guts of
fretboard markups. Your first step should always be to start at the
beginning of the Notation Reference, and look at the first possible
section you find. Generally, the common and easy stuff is earlier in the
manual than you might expect, and quite a lot of things are easier than
you might expect with LilyPond.
Cheers,
Colin
