Lilypond-book seems to skip included files

Question

I am experimenting with using Lilypond from windows. It seems lilypond-book skips sub-files.

I created a minimum working/not-working example in main.lytex, which I'm processing with a CMD-file (see below).

The first two versions (lilypond-environment and lilypondfile) work, while the third one (included in sub-file) doesn't:

enter image description here

Any ideas, why it won't work?
Should I perhaps put all subfiles into a subdirectory and tell lilypond-book to process all files in this directory? (How?)
Did I miss to tell lilypond-book to include a specific directory?

Notes:

on Linux it works (using \input instead of \include)
on OS it works (using \input instead of \include)

main.lytex:

\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}

\section{Lilypond directly}
\begin{lilypond}
    \relative c'
    {
      c4 d e f | g1
    }
\end{lilypond}

\section{Lilypond via include}
\lilypondfile{sheet.ly}

\section{Lilypond included from subfile}
\include{sub}

\end{document}

sub.tex:

\lilypondfile{sheet.ly}

sheet.ly:

\version "2.16.2"

\score {
  <<
    \relative c'
    {
      c4 d e f | g1
    }
  >>
}

my CMD-file:

set "outputdir=out"
set "includedir=inc"
set "maindir=%CD%"
set "mainfile=main"
set "TEXINPUTS=%TEXINPUTS%;%CD%"

set "lytexfile=%mainfile%.lytex"
set "latexfile=%mainfile%.tex"
set "pdffile=%mainfile%.pdf"

lilypond-book --pdf --output=%outputdir% --loglevel=ERROR %lytexfile% 

cd %outputdir%
pdflatex --interaction=nonstopmode --include-directory=%maindir% %latexfile%

cp %pdffile% ../%pdffile%
cd ..

output on command line:

Does it also fail if you use \input in place of \include? — Brent.Longborough, Jun 02 '14 at 08:55
@Brent.Longborough: neither \input nor \include work. Besides the obvious difference that include results in a pagebreak, input adds an extra lilypond-book.py: error: file not found: sub as error — hardmooth, Jun 02 '14 at 16:41
for now I've switched to a virtual linux. That's working and I have more control, but it's not what I was looking for. — hardmooth, Jun 22 '14 at 10:10
With \input instead of \include it works in my environment: OS 10.8.5, TexShop with Lilypond-book engine by N. Vitacolonna. — , Jun 04 '14 at 07:05
Have you tried to write \input{sub.tex} instead of \input{sub} ? — yo', Sep 06 '14 at 20:45

With lyluatex, included files work. main.lytex should be renamed main.tex, and modified to include lyluatex package:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{lyluatex}
\begin{document}
\section{Lilypond directly}
\begin{lilypond}
    \relative c'
    {
      c4 d e f | g1
    }
\end{lilypond}
\section{Lilypond via include}
\lilypondfile{sheet.ly}
\section{Lilypond included from subfile}
\include{sub}
\end{document}

Other files stay as in the question. Compilation should be done with lualatex and -shell-escape (no preprocessor command is required):

lualatex -shell-escape main

Lilypond-book seems to skip included files
