If I understand correctly,
Current GUB has Pango 1.40.1.
https://github.com/gperciva/gub/blob/fb232e24ade8a5cdec8bbb46b086bf8e506021a8/gub/specs/pango.py
There will be no problem.
LilyDev 4.1 or Debian jessie has Pango 1.36.8.
https://packages.debian.org/jessie/libpango-1.0-0
We cannot use LilyDev 4.1 after this patch is merged.
LilyDev 5.2 or Debian stretch has Pango 1.40.5.
https://packages.debian.org/stretch/libpango-1.0-0
So we can use LilyDev 5.2 after this patch is merged.
But, it is for Guile 2 migration instead of for ordinary developers.

Currently, LilyPond doesn't support OpenType font features. For example, many fonts already contain glyphs for small caps letters, but lilypond can't access such glyphs directly since OpenType fonts don't need to have named glyphs, and you need to activate an OpenType feature (`smcp' in this particular case) so that input character codes get properly mapped to caps glyphs.
I suggest that we implement an interface similar to the `fontspec' package for XeTeX and luatex:
