Even though I made this link, it still says:
Interpreting music...[6]
Preprocessing elements...
Calculating column positions... warning: can't find font: `cmr10'
warning: Loading default font
error: can't find default font: `cmr10'
ly2dvi hmm, I could not find an output file name
Does it give this error when it can't find msam10.tfm?

Hmm. This was *not* in my MiKTeX distro, though the msam10.mf file is
living under c:\texmf\fonts\source\ams\symbols... I wonder why there's no
corresponding .tfm file?

I don't know why, but for some reason kpathsea & kpsewhich didn't get ported
in MiKTeX, and there doesn't seem to be any mechanism there which is
comparable. I don't know what else to do, since the symlinks don't seem to
work anymore. IIRC, JBR used to just stick the whole "cm" subdirectory in
the lily tree instead of a symlink (he renamed it to "cmtfm", I used
"tfm.1") but even this approach doesn't work...

BTW, I've tried to get lily to compile under Cygwin but with no success--it
seems that guile won't compile in that environment for some reason (it
chokes on and-let*.scm)... JBR--How about it? Have you been able to
successfully compile lily using the latest Cygwin?
