Basically, it's an (imo) sucessful effort to take all pain away from
font issues. With the current setup, only TEXMF should be set, and
that only if you want to run tex by hand (guru only).
In addition, it is now possible to run lilypond from the build
directory, without setting symlinks.
Forget about (and/or make sure to unset, if necessary, TEXINPUTS,
MFINPUTS, TFMFONTS).

That's not excactly right. The only thing outdated about that file is
the fact that this
typically /usr/local/share/lilypond/ or /usr/share/lilypond/.
should read
typically /usr/local/share/lilypond/<VERSION> or
/usr/share/lilypond/<VERSION>

What I do, is configure lily like this:
./configure --disable-optimising --prefix=`pwd`
If you do that, ./scripts/out/ly2dvi runs without setting anything,
./lily/out/lilypond will too. No need to set LILYPONDPREFIX, or
TEXMF.
When I feel the need to run (LilyPond and) TeX by hand, I source my
'here-lily' script, that has become a lot simpler with this new setup.
I haven't used symlinks to run Lily for years, as it breaks running
different versions in an easy way.
Greetings,
Jan.
