Not quite:
$ sudo rpm -Uhv ghostscript-8.15.1-3.1.i386.rpm lilypond-2.7.24-1.i386.rpm 
ghostscript-devel-8.15.1-3.1.i386.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
        libgs.so.7 is needed by (installed) ImageMagick-6.2.2.0-3.fc4.0.i386
        libgs.so.7 is needed by (installed) 
ImageMagick-perl-6.2.2.0-3.fc4.0.i386
        libijs.so is needed by (installed) gimp-print-4.2.7-7.i386

So it seems that on Fedora Core 4:
* We need the hacked ghostscript 7.x libs with *all* libs present
* We need the hacked ghostscript 8.x with all libs removed.

Am I right?  And if so, do you have a hacked ghostscript 8.x spec
file?

I am sorry to be such a nuisance, but I am very keen to understand
what installing lilypond will do to my printing and other stuff that I
need.  I notice you are using FC4 too, so you probably have a simple
answer to all this.  When it is all resolved, I will put the source of
my efforts on http://nicku.org/ftp/lilypond/
