Thank you, but now I always get:

! Illegal unit of measure (pt inserted).
<to be read again>
                    .
\figurewidth ->545.
                    03625pt
\dodostartlilypond ...expr (\LPscale \figurewidth
                                                   ) \ifdim \FigWidth  
 >\localh...

from the code:

\def\LPscale{.6315789} % downscale the image
    \ifvmode
       \getfiguredimensions[\bufferprefix lilypond-\the\lily! 
figures.pdf][]%
       \leavevmode%
       \newdimen\FigWidth
       \FigWidth=\dimexpr(\LPscale\figurewidth)
       \ifdim\FigWidth>\localhsize
         \!!dimena=\localhsize
         \advance\!!dimena by-\FigWidth
         \noindent\hskip\!!dimena
       \fi
    \fi
    \externalfigure[\lily!img][scale=\dimexpr(1000\LPscale)]%
    \egroup%

What's wrong with \dimexpr{\SomeDef\SomeDim} ?
Some expansion problem?

(Sorry, I only try to patch the code, I didn't write it.)
