I don't know.  But the problem identified in the issue is related to adding
a new lilypond option (-dlilypondbookoutput), which I assume lilypond-book
calls but OOoLilyPond does not.  If I were trying to solve this problem,
that's where I would look to start.  I suspect that the new option should
be included when calling lilypond.

But I have no experience with using OOoLilyPond, so I don't know this for
sure.

I think that is not true.  Han-Wen said that the scheme code needed for
compatibility with previous versions was two ly:set-option calls.  And
ly:set-option calls are available from the command line: (See the Usage
Manual)
