Starting at line 200 the file lilypond-book.itely says:

LilyPond does not use the LaTeX font handling scheme for lyrics and text
markups, so if you use non-anglosaxian characters in your lilypond-book
documents, include @[EMAIL PROTECTED]@}} in the file
header but do not include @[EMAIL PROTECTED]@}}. Character
sets other than latin1 are not supported directly but may be handled by
explicitly specifying the @code{font-name} property in LilyPond and
using the corresponding LaTeX packages. Please consult the mailing list
for more details.

Firstly, "non-anglosaxian" should be "non-Anglo-Saxon."  But, and
perhaps more to the point, Anglo-Saxon includes such charaters as 'eth',
'thorn' and 'aesc' (the ligature 'ae').  All of these characters exist
above character code 127 making them non-US-ASCII.  These characters are
all part of [T1], or [latin1] or iso-8859-1.   Does "non-anglosaxian"
need to be changed to "non-US-ASCII" instead?
