Unlike DOS, by default unix does *NOT* search in the current directory
for an executable program.
I think if you tried
address@hidden:~/bin$ ./lilypond
which explicitly tells the OS to look in the current directory,
you'd get a different result.
You can add ./ to your path if you want to have linux search the
current directory for executables.
Hope this helps,
