syntax error in (1.4.8) lily-guile.cc?

[Carl Gibbons]

When trying to build lilypond version 1.4.8:

make[1]: Entering directory `/space/usr/local/src/lilypond-1.4.8/lily'
cp -p .././config.h out/config.h
rm -f ./out/lily-guile.dep; DEPENDENCIES_OUTPUT="./out/lily-guile.dep

lily-guile.cc: In function `SCM ly_version()':
lily-guile.cc:446: parse error before string constant
make[1]: *** [out/lily-guile.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/space/usr/local/src/lilypond-1.4.8/lily'
make: *** [all] Error 2


The offending line 446 is:

  char const* vs =  "\' (" MAJOR_VERSION " " MINOR_VERSION " " PATCH_LEVEL " " 
MY_PATCH_LEVEL ")" ;

which looks like quoting syntax errors.  I'll try hacking a fix, but I
don't know what I'm doing.

My platform is Solaris 8 on SPARC, gcc 2.95.3.  (Oh, and if it matters:
python 1.6a2, guile 1.4, TeX 3.14159, kpathsea 3.3.1, GNU make 3.79.1,
flex 2.5.4a, bison 1.28, Ghostscript 6.0)
