Another refinement:

Add "intitle:Manual" or "intitle:Reference" to search only the manual
or the reference.

More here: http://www.google.com/help/operators.html

Firefox users can add these searches easily as a Keyword Search Engine.:

"lm blah" instead of the URL would search 
  
http://www.google.com/search?q=site:lilypond.org+intitle:Manual+inurl:v2.11+blah

To configure that, just make a bookmark, replace the search-term by
"%s" and add a keyword like "lm".

Then "<Ctrl-T> lm something" is _very_ quick to search the manual
for "something" ...

Seb.

PS: the same holds for amazon, news, wikis etc... A quite powerful
feature IMHO.
