Honestly?  Looks fishy in almost all fonts you show.  I suspect that the
math letter for "mikro" is picked here.

Looking at the source (as far as possible in mail), however, shows μ
(the Greek text letter, Unicode char 956) rather than µ (the Greek math
char, Unicode char 181).

Does Lilypond have internal character tables that could possibly mess
this up?
