That's a tricky one.  The \include statement is evaluated before the
assignment to "num" is complete since LilyPond syntax allows things like

num = "01".oh

and the ."oh" might be provided by the included file.  So you need to
put basically anything after the assignment to "num" before calling the
\include statement.
