Yes, definitely. I often (at least in times when I'm actually working on
stuff in LilyPond) have multiple builds side-by-side. For example one
from current master and others from different open branches or even from
earlier releases. Actually Frescobaldi even has got explicit support for
this upon Janek's request.

Yes.
If that is relevant there is also an out/lilypond-invoke-editor.1 which
is not executable and has size 0.

Yes, and it's executable as well.

Nothing.
The output without the last grep is attached.

>From what I can guess and see in the build directory there is no
directory share/lilypond/share/guile/site, only
share/lilypond/share/guile/1.8. But I can't really make anything from that.
Also share/lilypond/lib64 is not present, only share/lilypond/lib.
I have the impression later errors are when looking for Guile files in
the default places.

Does this help any further?
