Yes, indeed.  Sorry about that.  1.4.8 still has this problem.

This will be fixed in 1.4.9, we now have:

  set datadir="@datadir@"

  if ( $?GS_FONTPATH ) then
         setenv GS_FONTPATH "$datadir/afm:/usr/share/lilypond/pfa:$GS_FONTPATH"
   else
         setenv GS_FONTPATH "$datadir/afm:/usr/share/lilypond/pfa"
   endif
   if ( $?GS_LIB ) then
         setenv GS_LIB "$datadir/ps:$GS_LIB"
   else
         setenv GS_LIB "$datadir/ps"
   endif

in buildscripts/lilypond-login.sh

Greetings,
Jan.
