Here's a solution that works for me.  Edit the file, 
/usr/local/bin/lilypond-script-wrapper.sh so the line that starts 
"export PYTHONPATH" reads as follows:

export 
PYTHONPATH="$prefix/share/lilypond/current/python:$prefix/lib/lilypond/2.6.5/python:$PYTHONPATH"

Make sure that the "2.6.5" matches your lilypond version.  In my case it 
is 2.6.4.

Cheers,
Jim
