It's 5000 lines of things like this:
(hashq-set! boxes-for-emmentaler-11 'rests.1 '((paths (357 0 18 0) (18
0 8 0 0 8 0 18) (0 18 0 138) (0 138 0 148 8 156 18 156) (18 156 357
156) (357 156 367 156 375 148 375 138) (375 138 375 18) (375 18 375 8
367 0 357 0)) (mmx 0.0 . 375.0) (mmy 0.0 . 156.0)))

shall i try to copy the file manually to
TOP_SRC/out/share/lilypond/current/fonts/scm and see if it will not
crash?

Umm, i already did it.  I even cloned a separate repository from
savannah to make sure that no old cruft of mine is hanging around, and
made everything from scratchy-scratch.
I meant that you should try it ;-)

No problem!  Your change is so awesome that this is the least i can do.
