Ah, seems easy to fix. See below.

The latets guile looks in /Cygwin/usr/ .. etc, because I found that the
default Cygwin install is in /Cygwin, and not in /Cygnus as I assumed.
So, you'll have to make another symlink in bash:
ln -s / /Cygwin
(Note that you can always set $LILYPONDPREFIX and $GUILE_LOAD_PATH to
get these things right.)

Did you specify a bash shell in /etc/passwd?

Yes. I just found that, using the latest cygwin setup (1.1.3), you can do
ls /cygdrive/c
without the mounting and symlinking tricks that I did. Oh well.

Ok, did you install the latest teTeX-src (misleading automatically-generated
name) and teTeX-MikTeX binary packages from appel? teTeX-src provides
a kpsewhich, teTeX-MikTeX should set some config stuff right.
With these packages, lilypond, through kpathsea, tetex scripts and miktex,
even generates .tfm's on the fly!

Ok. Me too.
