Maybe lilyPond should create a unique temporary filename using something
like mktemp to create the intermediate files.
P.S. As a side-effect this would also solve a funny issue that's happening
on systems when using a filename like "lines.ly". The intermediate
filename "lines.ps" confuses Ghostscript, as there is also a "lines.ps"
file in the Ghostscript library path.
