Unable to get Lilypond-mode working for Xemacs

[Jonathan Henkelman]

I have been trying to get the Lilypond major mode working in xemacs (under 
cygwin - latest release of both as I updated them this morning).
 
When I try to start the Lilypond mode (using Meta-x Lilypond-mode) I get the 
following error: "Cannot open load file: compile".
 
When I comment out the line: (require 'compile)
I get the following errro: "Wrong type argument: stringp, nil"
 
Not sure what is wrong and any help would be appreciated.  Could this be 
linked to the warning I get when I run xemacs: "WARNING: Couldn't find an 
obvious default for the root of the XEmacs hierarchy."  Any advice on how to 
fix this would be appreciated too!
 
Thanks much,
Jonathan Henkelman
