Stephen,

You should realize that there are two ways to add grace-style notes to 
your music (sorry, this also relates to the other thread "Slur and 
acciaccatura in chords"):

1. \grace (no slur) & \appogiatura (automatic slur)
2. \slashedGrace (no slur) & \acciaccatura (automatic slur)

If you need to control the direction of the slur more directly, you can 
always use the \slashedGrace and manual slur-direction syntax like this:

        \slashedGrace b8_( <g a c>4 )

This way, you can use "^(" to make the slur go up and "_(" to make the 
slur go down at-will (which you can use in any other normal slur and 
phrasing-slur usage, not just with grace notes). And, until there is a 
better solution, you may have to tweak the shape of the slur to go to 
the correct note (say you wanted to go the "a" in the chord).

Regards,
Abraham

P.S. Sorry, the direction of this message also relates to the other 
thread "Slurs and acciaccatura in chords:
