 Nice.  How did you come by this one?

Accidentally.  The weird thing is that I then tried using the file name
lines.ly instead.

Turns out that those are pretty much the only two more or less
ordinary words afflicted.

I was actually looking for the tiger, but it seems that it is no longer
being distributed.

Can you guess what the output of saving and running the following file
will be?

\markup \center-align { hoi hoo }

Is the surprising output related to this?
If an included file is given a name which is the same as one in 
LilyPond's installation files, LilyPond's file from the installation 
files takes precedence.

I run into the later issue earlier this week...

Only by analogy.  LilyPond is not at fault for _this_ one.

 I was thinking that whatever the function may or may not do, there will be
a \version warning if the file is run as-is by itself.

No, the PostScript is still fine.  But when you ask Ghostscript to
convert it to anything else, it has its own idea what to convert.

Ok!

At first I thought it was an easter egg, but so close to Halloween it 
must be a bug!

For me, it does not occur with 2.17 versions (.9 and .26) but only with
2.16.2.
