Well, on my system your snippet as you have written it throws no error
whatsoever... The result is exactly as I believe is the one you expected.
I rather suspect your way of organizing the lilypond file is creating
the error, or - perhaps more understandable - the fact that you are on a
mac may be the reason?
My own system is a linux debian testing, vigorously updated.
