Fink says I have the latest version of ec-fonts-mftraced installed.  
This may
not matter, however; now I'm using a newer version of LilyPond (that has
its own batch of font problems :-)).  See below.

The file is there, and the permissions seem to be fine (I can read it). 
 AFAICT
/sw/bin/init.csh is being run; my $PATH includes /sw/bin, and $TEXMF is
