Actually, there seem to be two workarounds: 1) use the lilypond-profile that comes with building from 1.6.2 source on Linux (this creates the TEXMF variable among other things) 2) use -P as you said, then convert separately to PDF.
So, perhaps the cygwin installation needs to have those startup scripts added. I certainly didn't know about them until building from scratch.
