So (once I fix the 3.0 -> 2.4 bit) this is correct?

Before LilyPond 3.0, the lilypond program only generated music 
notation. Titles and page layout was done in a separate wrapper 
program. For compatibility with older files, this wrapper program has 
been retained as lilypond-latex. It uses the LilyPond program and LaTeX 
to create a nicely titled piece of sheet music. Use of this program is 
only necessary if the input file contains special LaTeX options or 
formatting codes in markup texts.

I know that you were planning on removing TeX dependency, but that got 
pushed back to post-2.4, so I'm confused.  If that paragraph is 
correct, then everything's fine.  :)
