Please read the file Documentation/automake.urgh. Hanwen and Jan
did a very serious attempt to use automake but decided to try the
current solution instead. It's probably possible to extend stepmake
to use VPATH, but I leave that question to the main authors.
So far you should run configure directly in the lilypond-xxx/ directory
to avoid the errors you attached.
