On my Linux machine with 2.25.16, that file nondeterministically compiles,
segfaults, or triggers a floating point exception. No time to investigate

You missed one important step, namely to look up the Learning Manual (LM):

  https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.24/Documentation/learning/index.html

The index there already contains entries for `<< ... >>` and friends.

Uh, oh, this is not the intended use of the Notation Reference (NR)!
You should *really* start with the LM.

Well, yes, it is expected to know the syntax if you look up stuff in
the NR...  Anyway it is a known problem that some stuff in the LM is
missing in the NR.
