It works great out-of-the box on my machine (Mint 20.1) and (after one 
pass with GUILE_AUTO_COMPILE=1) seems to be as fast as before.

I'd love to use this on a daily basis (and report possible trouble), 
but: At the moment, it fails when invoked from Frescobaldi (3.2) for 
files containing Umlaute in their path. I'm not quite sure why, because 
the problem does not occur when I invoked Lilypond manually on the 
command line:

Obviously some encoding/unicode problem, but I'm not sure if the culprit 
is LilyPond or Frescobaldi?
