For additional data points: I've built an Ubuntu 10.04 VM and used GUB 
to build 2.15.24, which seems to work correctly, in that it produced an 
installer which in turn gave me a copy of lilypond that can compile .ly 
and which reports itself as version 2.15.24 in response to lilypond -v.
Like Carl, I can't get GUB working on Ubuntu 11.x (tested 11.04 and 
11.10 x86-64, and 11.10 x86-32), nor on Fedora 15 x86-64, all of which 
seem to use gcc 4.6, IIRC.
My latest attempt on the Fedora VM fails while building python 2.4:

Command barfed: cd /home/colin/gub/target/tools/build/python-2.4.5 && 
make  BLDLIBRARY='-Wl,-rpath -Wl,\$$ORIGIN/../lib -Wl,-rpath 
-Wl,/home/colin/gub/target/tools/root/usr/lib -L. -lpython$(VERSION)'   
DESTDIR=/home/colin/gub/target/tools/install/python-2.4.5-root install

The "missing" file, libpython2.4.so.1.0 seems to be in 
/home/colin/gub/target/tools/build/python-2.4.5 so I'm missing 
something, too.  Another datum is the /plat-linux3 directory just before 
the make error 127: GUB is seeing the host system, which seems to be 
many rev levels ahead of the GUB platform itself.  I had thought GUB 
would build itself a self-contained chroot, in which case the host 
system upgrades shouldn't be a factor, but that may not in fact be the case.

Cheers,
Colin
