Yes.
But I just found out that the 2nd write (the one done after running
latex) in this setup works. That means that ly2dvi'ing the file twice
produces correct dvi-file. The tex file is changed, though.

If I create a setup where tex do not fail - i.e. by running ly2dvi once
and then doing minor changes in the resulting .tex file - then that
changed tex-file is used again and again.

Strange, indeed.
AFAIR I had similar problems earlier and we did not find solution.
