No, I can't help, but I may have bad news for you: I played some with  
the lilypond module myself and found out that lilypond itself may be  
the culprit. lilypond can produce eps figures; that's the only way the  
output is cropped to just the figure and doesn't produce an entire  
page. Unfortunately, in my experiments, the bounding box which  
lilypond uses is always a bit too small, the elements you describe are  
always cut off at the left margin. You can try that by creating a  
standalone .ly file and running lilypond with the --backend=eps option  
on it, and you'll see the effect. I have tried with a number of  
options to modify this behavior of lilypond, but haven't had any  
success. Since lilypond is pretty broken on Os X 10.5 at the moment, I  
have given up for the time being.
