Thanks for the clarification, it is more than just \ChordNames - in my case it
was when I used \sans but also some other specific markups that I was unable to
precisely define (\sans was the simplest to report)
I had opened this as a bug
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1562
However when I tried to reproduce this on a clean install I could not and I
thought I was going mad, but it was only when you said 'SP'1 that a light went
on in my head!
I had forgotten that I had installed SP1 on these two machines a few weeks back
(I had the RC1 installed), I have literally just finished installing the
released version of SP1 on my clean installations and have indeed reproduced
this with my simple example
I also get

error: failed files: "C:\\Users\\dcsw\\Desktop\\blah.ly.ly"
So the issue is with Windows 7 SP1 specifically rather than a LP bug - it maybe
GhostScript incompatibility but I don't have the skills to easily debug this.
Could we re-open this Tracker with an appropriate priority (it may no longer be
build critical)?

I've re-opened #1562, James, and made note of the temporary workaround:
avoid \sans til the bug gets squashed.
