Well, I usually go with stable versions unless someone says something is fixed in a development version, so most likely the first version I downloaded was 2.10.19-1, and then started other versions from there. That was the first version. Then I downloaded the development version, thinking that the problem may have been fixed. It wasn't, so I posted, and per Han-Wen, downloaded older versions until I came to one that would compile. 2.10.13-1, IIRC. Then, per Graham's instructions, I renamed and moved my .fontconfig file, and lilypond works fine now, both development and stable. I think I can recreate the circumstances under which the error occurs. I'll try it and let you know.
