Yes, I would expect that: if Scores/ is the directory where include 
files are, then that is where lilypond needs to be pointed to. As it 
happens, the --include=../ line given as example works as is with 
Hartmut's use case, but in your use case the include files are one level 
deeper.

I'll have a look at #(ly:set-option 'relative-includes #t); if it's 
really ignored I suspect that it's happening at lilypond's level rather 
than being a lilypond-book specific problem.

Thanks for testing and regards,
