Does this apply to lilypond-book, as well as lilypond itself?  Fewer
people use lilypond-book, so my theory was that there's a bug in
the -snapshot package that messes up lilypond-book in the
non-snapshot package.

Do the lilypond/lilypond-snapshot packages set any TEX env
variables?  I assume so, in which case how can they coexist
peacefully (for lilypond-book, rather than lilypond itself) ?
