To reiterate: There are some masked versions in portage. To see
all current versions available in portage I find eix is good:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ eix lilypond
* media-sound/lilypond
     Available versions:  2.0.3 ~2.2.4 ~2.2.6 ~2.4.2 ~2.5.2
     Installed:           no
     Homepage:            http://lilypond.org/
     Description:         GNU Music Typesetter

you can see from that that there are 4 masked versions in portage. If
you want a masked package you need to put the following in
/etc/portage/package.keywords. 

media-sound/lilypond ~x86

If you want one of the later ebuilds from the bugs site you need to set
up a portage overlay, which is covered in the gentoo wiki, as pointed to
elsewhere in this thread.
