If you want to learn more about how this works, read the comments in the file pointed to by kpsewhich texmf.cnf
There's also some documentation if you run 'info kpathsea'
If you want to check the default value of TEXMF, do unset TEXMF kpsexpand \$TEXMF

Yes, I do

I definitely agree, but it DIDN'T work until I did this. I couldn't find the documentation of what the value of $TEXMF means. What are the !! for? In any case, until I gave that definition, things didn't work. For example kpsewhich ecrb10.pfa
gave nothing (i.e. a blank line), until I set TEXMF.
Mats, Well, I got things working. It seems that what was necessary, was for me to put the line export TEXMF="{$HOME/texmf,/usr/share/texmf}" in my .bashrc. After I did that, then lilypond could find the ec fonts in my $HOME/texmf. Now lilypond 2.4.0 seems to work. Thanks again.
