When I compare my output with
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.6/input/mutopia/F.Schubert/out-www/morgenlied.png
not only the lyrics text is different. If the example on the site is
made with lily 2.6.0, then I guess that my compilation of that same .ly
file should give an identical result. So also a serif title. Is there a
Pango expert that can explain this?

That explains a lot. Anyway, I only tried to view dvi to be able to see
what fonts were used there.
