I made a feeble attempt at this, but I didn't succeed at installing. 
Although both setups are based on tetex-3, several other required files 
are present in different versions in Wierda's distribution as compared 
to Fink. (Some versions are ahead, some behind. They include fontforge, 
bison, and several others.)

This is beyond my capability to resolve, so I gave up messing around 
and just installed Lilypond's recommended items through Fink.

Thank you both for your help!
