Figured out the problem - on Mac OS X, I had to install the Century fonts in a mac-y location for them to be found. This seems buggy, as lilypond_datadir correctly points to a directory where the .otf font is hanging out. It may be worth it for someone who knows more about fontconfig than I to check if font-config.cc is correctly adding the path. In the meanwhile, I'll post a patch w/ more useful warning messages.
