Hmm... I didn't have any problems with this code:

\version "2.24.4"

\book {
  \bookOutputName "/home/xxx/tmp/foo"
  \score {
    \relative { c''4 d e f }

}

Knute, your example gave me the clue - I'm running on Windows!

LilyPond statements must have forward slashes in path names.

That's what happens when I attempt changes too late in the evening.

Now I agree with Saul that this saves having to use the Frescobaldi menu 
LilyPond>"Engrave (custom)..." option (simply use the standard engrave).

Thanks to both Knute and Saul.
