Here it is. I noticed that the file titledefs.tex had been installed in /usr/share/texmf, whereas my texmf tree is in /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf. I copied the lilypond directory over there, but I still got the same error message. I even tried copying titledefs.tex into the same directory where my .ly file is, and even that doesn't seem to help! I don't know why TeX doesn't find the file if it's sitting right there.
