So then it is a problem with with 10.5 - perhaps LilyPond needs to be  
recompiled with a later compiler (Xcode) or something (since it seems  
to not recognize the binary format). File a bug report in Bug- 
LilyPond mailing list.

(I wanted to be sure that it did not work when put in /Applications/  
because there have been problems reported with that elsewhere for  
some programs, also in 10.4.)
