Text comes out blank using lilypond under cygwin

["Richard Stanton" <stanton at haas dot berkeley dot edu>]

I just installed lilypond (v. 2.6.4) under Windows (cygwin) using the cygwin
setup program. Although I can run the program and generate PS and PDF files
OK, and no error messages are produced, no text appears on the output. The
notes are fine, but lyrics are completely blank (though I can see some
punctuation...)

I assume it's a font problem, but don't know where to look. By the way, as
well as installing lilypond, I also installed tetex (everything I could
find) and ghostscript (v. 8.50).

In case this is helpful, here is the output from lilypond in verbose mode
when processing a simple file that is supposed to contain some text:

If anyone can tell me how to get the lyrics to display, I'd be very
grateful.

Thanks a lot.
