I'm amazed how much time it took me to figure this out, we should have
some good examples on this.  The v2.2.0 lilypond script is not very
flexible or elegant with respect to setting special latex options.

I'm fairly sure that with some good bug reports (with latex code
solutions) this could have been fixed eons ago.
