Fwd: ERROR: Unable to find file "ice-9/boot-9.scm" in load path

[Jacek Gajek]

In PATH I have "C:\Program Files (x86)\LilyPond\usr\bin". It is a
correct path (the folder exists).

When I type lilypond:
GNU LilyPond 2.12.3
programming error: cannot find absolute argv0
continuing, cross fingers
ERROR: In procedure primitive-load-path:
ERROR: Unable to find file "ice-9/boot-9.scm" in load path

I use Miktex 2.9 x64.
