One aspect that complicates things is that there are four different
lilylib files that Python can consider to import:
.../usr/share/lilypond/current/python/lilylib.py
.../usr/share/lilypond/current/python/lilylib.pyc
.../usr/bin/lilylib.py
.../usr/bin/lilylib.pyc
When experimenting with the 2.8.5-1 package, it seems that convert-ly
(and the other Python scripts) work well as long as at least one of these
four files is present.
With the 2.9.13 package, there is some problem with
.../usr/share/lilypond/current/python/lilylib.py
just as you say, but as soon all the other three files seem to work well,
so if you just remove it from the distribution, I guess everything should
work well. Same goes for convertrules, where everything works well
as soon as you remove the convertrules.py file in .../python/.
Unfortunately I don't have the Windows competence to discover what
the problem is with these files.

I could use some help troubleshooting this windows problem.
It was seemingly introduced in 2.9.6.
What happens over here, is that the files in
c:/Program Files/LilyPond/usr/share/lilypond/current/python/
are botched in some way. There seems to be a problem with permissions
or somesuch, because the following commands seems to fix the problem
cd c:/Program Files/LilyPond/usr/share/lilypond/current/python/
rename lilylib.py botched.py
cp botched.py lilylib.py
note that cp should be the cygwin cp command. It's also ok to do
cat botched.py > lilylib.py
this will change
File "c:/Program Files/LilyPond/usr/bin/convert-ly.py", line 39, in ?
import lilylib as ly
SystemError: NULL result without error in PyObject_Call
to
File "c:/Program Files/LilyPond/usr/bin/convert-ly.py", line 42, in ?
from convertrules import *
SystemError: NULL result without error in PyObject_Call
(which is the next import statement)
So, it seems that there is some kind of filesystem access attribute
that is set in the installer, and copied along with copy (but not with
cp).
I couldn't figure out what it was, but I invite people with more
knowledge of Windows to analyze this further.
