Well, I started again from scratch.

Here is the first failure:

     bison -d parser.yy
     mv parser.yy.tab.h out/parser.hh
     mv: cannot access parser.yy.tab.h
     make[1]: *** [out/parser.hh] Error 2
     make[1]: Leaving directory 
`/usr/local/src/various/lilypond-stuff/lilypond-1.5.25/lily'

So I go into ./lily and look and here's the problem:


     [17:07:24 
address@hidden:/usr/local/src/various/lilypond-stuff/lilypond-1.5.25/lily]$ ls 
-l parse*
     -rw-r--r--   1 jax      staff     125227 Dec 15 17:01 parser.tab.cc
     -rw-r--r--   1 jax      staff       2912 Dec 15 17:01 parser.tab.hh
     -rw-r--r--   1 jax      staff      44850 Dec  1 07:34 parser.yy

Apparently the mv operation fails because bison isn't generating the file names 
expected by the makefile.

I think I obscured the issue by re-running bison by hand.

For right now I will very carefully mv parser.tab.hh to out/parser.hh and 
continue trying to build.
