Not that I know of.  What problem are you referring to?

Ok, now please try running the gs command manually, first setting the
appropriate env vars (set LILYPOND_VERBOSE=1 to see the values that lp uses)

set GS_LIB=C:/PROGRA~1/LILYPOND/USR/share/ghostscript/fonts  # ? check
set GS_FONTHPATH=C:/WINDOWS/FONTS

gs    -dCompatibilityLevel#1.4  -sPAPERSIZE#"a4" -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -r1200  
-sDEVICE#pdfwrite -sOutputFile#"simple.pdf" -c .setpdfwrite -f "simple.ps"

... must run

Jan.
