xtext error when using newly compiled and installed lilypond

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Download, compile and install lilypond-2.15.9 using default settings.
2. Use Window=>Preferences=>Lilypond to set the path to the executable 
(/usr/local/bin/lilypond).
3. Edit and save the current score.

What is the expected output? 

A successful compilation.

What do you see instead?
'Xtext validation has encountered a problem. An internal error occurred during: 
"Xtext validation".

Clicking the "Details" button gets this:

An internal error occurred during: "Xtext validation".
java.lang.RuntimeException: Please make sure your LilyPond installation is 
valid and its location is specified correctly.

What version of the product are you using?
Version current in December 2011

On what operating system?
Ubuntu Lucid Lynx 10.04.

Please provide any additional information below.

This doesn't happen if I use a development version of Lilypond, e.g.
lilypond-2.15.30-1.linux-x86.sh, which is installed by default in 
/home/michael/lilypond/usr/bin/lilypond.

This is a duplicate of issue 23. Until it is fixed, you can add the directory 
where init.ly resides (e.g. /usr/local/share/lilypond/current/ly/) to the 
Search folders in Preferences > LilyPond > Compiler.
