Hello Simon,

see

  http://codereview.appspot.com/246041

for an even less hacky install.

As you note, the alphabet remains tricky.  The current method of
loading the alphabet fonts is rather hacky (for the text fonts, we use
the PFB version rather than the OTF one), so we should first fix that
before trying to make other fonts work properly.

I had a brief look at the doc of how the fonts are created. You may
want to look into learning  MetaFont - it matches pretty well how you
created the fonts, and AFAICS it should be easy to convert Gonville to
MF; it could then be distributed with lilypond. Perhaps Werner (our
font guru) could help?
