This is a bug; lilypond-book shouldn't recompile anything unnecessarily. 
 What version of lilypond are you using, on which OS, and  what 
command-line arguments are you using?  Does it make a difference if you 
run lilypond-book from your output directory?  (ie don't use --out/ or 
--output/ or whatever that command is )


I can't help with your other questions... nor can I really help with 
debugging lilypond-book... but answering these questions may help other 
people discover the problem faster.  :)
