If there's bugs that affect us that are fixed by later versions,
then I guess we should do this.  I'll a bit sad to have lilypond
no longer compile on debian/stable[1], but I must admit that this
is a weird state of affairs.  :)

[1] I guess that texi2html already spoils this, although that's
only in the docs and not the main program.
