Ah, now I see.
Yes, it does make a difference:

GNU LilyPond 2.19.16
warning: not relocating, no 2.19.16/ or current/ found under 
/shared/software/lilyponds/2.19.16/usr/bin/share/lilypond/
ERROR: In procedure primitive-load-path:
ERROR: Unable to find file "lily.scm" in load path

which is due to the load script that doesn't set the paths when the 
executable is done directly.

when I run this from ~/bin (i.e. locally calling the wrapper script) 
everything's fine again because the wrapper script sets the actual path 
to the executable.

So it seems I don't have to consider this as an issue.

Thanks for the feedback
