Oh, I misunderstood that.  Hmm.

If that's true, then maybe this should be added.  It'd be another
of those 5-lines patches that takes 5 hours to write, though.

Hmm.  If you definitely want to move in this direction, then
collated-files.log should be in whatever directory
collated-files.pdf and collated-files.html are.


I'd much rather see per-.ly logs, though.  (or rather, I'd like to
see both per-.ly logs, and a per-collated-files.log which would
contain the lilypond-book parts of the output, rather than the
lilypond parts of the output.  So I guess it's not bad to start
off with a per-collated-files.log file that has *all* the output,
and then split off the other logs in later work)
