LaTeX output has been completely dropped in current LilyPond versions.
The current interaction with LaTeX happens with the lilypond-book
Python script which is approximately works similar to Bernd's
solution, namely to extract .ly snippets from the input file, process
them with lilypond, then write out a new document which embeds the
created EPS or PNG images.

PS: Bernd, you should definitely have a look how lilypond-book works.
    For example, it adds a default preamble and postamble to the
    temporary .ly files so that the snippets can stay very small.  It
    also uses hash sums of the snippets to avoid unnecessary
    recompilation, etc., etc.  Quite nifty IMHO.
