They are still used for producing the PDF documentatation, so there is
still a build dependency on tetex. Also, tetex is great for making
documents with lilypond snippets, but this does not make tetex a
dependency (now that we dropped it).

TeX used to be our easy way out to produce output. In the 2.5 series,
we managed to use pango to make the half-baken PS backend fully
operational.
Supporting tex output is a lot of work, and it probably has just one user.
