If you tell lilypond-book (using --include=lilypond) to look in the 
lilypond directory for the file ../config.ly, it can't find this file 
because it doesn't exist (because of .. you end up in the parent directory).

It might be sufficient to specify only one subdirectory e.g. 
--include=lilypond/tuneA (and not all subdirectories one-by-one) since 
then it can find the file at lilypond/tuneA/../config.ly

Makes sense?
