This is supposed to create the files key-option-all-staves.texidoc
key-option-all-staves.options key-option-all-staves.pdf and
key-option-all-staves.midi. However, if the directory out-www does
not exist, it creates that set of files in the CWD but with the name
out-www (i.e. it loses the root key-option-all-staves).
Bug?
In terms of the build system, I can't think of any case in which
this is possibly the desired behaviour, so yes it's a bug in the
build system.
In terms of lilypond itself, no. Specify -o ./out-www/ if you
want to ensure that it's a directory; otherwise there's no reason
for lilypond to assume that you want a directory out-www/ instead
of a file out-www

OK. It's not a bug in the build system - the directory exists. If you do
use -o ./out-www/ (with the trailing slash) it makes no difference - it
still produces files names out-www.pdf, etc.
