Hmm, I find it hard to believe they would have broken that feature 
especially for windows.  Maybe it wants backslashes in FONTPATH, or
it reads from the registry or whatnot.  It would be nice if somebody
figured this one out.

No, but there should(!:-) be little use for ps output, if you have miktex.

Anything worth sharing/worth of updating our stale .html docs about windows?

Uh, the 'key' is missing: this should read

    \def\mudelatagline{Lily was here, 1.3.38.jcn3}

Ah, but this is the lily.scm version you edited yourself?  When you
removed the 

   (regexp-substitute/global #f "_"
                                   (output-tex-string key) 'pre "X" 'post)

function, the plain old
    (output-tex-string key)

function, should have been uncommented/activated again.
Anyway, no editing should be necessary with .jcn3 or .39.

Not quite, but almost there.
