What is your version of guile, you'll need 1.3 (1.2 has problems
with gc, which looks a lot like what you're seeing here).
You could try:
lilypond -fscm stille.ly
if you're lucky (the unbound error comes later) you'll get a stille.scm
that you can run through guile...

Yes, lily.scm is read directly.

Yes, it's setting a lot of them. But i still don't see why lilypond
wouldn't look in usr/share/lilypond or whatever...
