Is there a magic word that lets you test a new distribution without
installing it first?  For instance, how do you run lilypond on
twinkle.dvi, after doing 'make', but before "make install"?

The naive answer:

        cd $LILYPOND_SOURCEDIR/input
        $LILYPOND_SOURCEDIR/lily/out/lilypond twinkle.ly

produces:

GNU LilyPond 0.1.71/FlowerLib 1.1.44.
warning: can't find file: `init.ly'

and the slightly more educated:

        $LILYPOND_SOURCEDIR/lily/out/lilypond \
           -I=$LILYPOND_SOURCEDIR/init/init.ly twinkle.ly

produces the same thing, although $LILYPOND_SOURCEDIR/init/init.ly
does exist.
