Seems I'm a bit overwhelmed by all the novelty and I replied to Ben
directly rather than to the list. Hoping this'll fix it...

Copy-pasted this same snippet from the lilypond manual and I can't see
any difference between yours and mine... which does not mean there isn't
any :)

I'm beginning to think I was wrong about what I thought I saw. 

A closer inspection of the glyphs makes me think it is using some form
of Century Schoolbook. The upper-case letter "Q" for instance is quite
recognizable.

Could it be that for some reason lilypond (or another layer invoked by
lilypond) doesn't like the font(s) I specified and silently falls back
to the Century Schoolbook default?

I ran "lilypond -V" and the messages would appear to indicate that
make-pango-font-tree failed.

Attaching:

1. a png image of the lilypond output.     (cc08.png)
2. lilypond's message log                  (verbose.log) 

Thanks,

CJ
