A single file would be good -- something that contains any TeX preamble
(that is necessary to reproduce this problem), any lilypond code, etc.

I just discovered this yesterday; consider it a bug.  Again, please 
create
the smallest possible (and definitely single-file) example and send to
bug-lilypond.  However, I'm having some difficulty reproducing my
example in a small file.

Oh, actually this could be a different issue: with \book, the lilypond 
example
takes up the entire page.  My suggestion is to set
\paper { vsize = whatever }
manually inside your lilypond code.  I use 10\in for letterpaper; I 
don't know
what a good number is for A4.  And if you want to use custom footers, 
then
that number would need to be less.
