Hmm. \par almost certainly means that there's a stray empty line in the

Well, it works fine over here, so you'll have to investigate a bit:
* check the .ly file:
23:10:21 appel ~/usr/src/lilypond$ cat
Documentation/tex/out-www/reference-manual-1.6.2.ly
% Generated by mudela-book.py; options are center fragment singleline verbatim
\include "paper16.ly"
\paper { linewidth = -1.000000 \pt; }
\score {
\notes {
ces' des' es' fes' ges' as' bes'
}
\paper { }
* if that's fine, run lilypond
23:16:52 appel ~/usr/src/lilypond$ ./lily/out/lilypond
Documentation/tex/out-www/reference-manual-1.6.2.ly
GNU LilyPond 1.2.6.

Now see what xdvi, or gv (after dvips) say.
