this warning has gone in 2.9.26-3-mingw. thanks for looking into this :)

but the svg files don't get the text fonts correctly I think. Editing
the generated svg I see:

text style="font-family:Schoolbook;font-style:L ...

instead of (what I think should be, as previous versions generated):

text style="font-family:Century Schoolbook L" ...

so Inkscape substitutes the text by its default font.

I can search and replace all the ocurrences, so I can live 
with that... :)

btw, if I use the otf fonts that come with 2.9.26, Inkscape don't renders
the music fonts correctly. I think that the unicode "codes" for the music 
symbols are now 2 numbers higher than they should be, so I get quarter 
noteheads instead of whole notes, the percussion clef instead the g clef, 
pedal end sing instead the C time sigature, and so on...
If I maintain the "2.9.18" otf fonts in my system, Inkscape displays the
music ok.

this continues to happen, (no matter with which commandline parameters 
I invoke lilypond) but it don't seems to be a critical problem. Its 
"weird", but everything else seems to work fine.

yes:

lilypond --backend=svg myfile.ly

%%%% myfile.ly %%%%

\version "2.9.26"

\header 
{
  title = "Hello"
}

\relative c''
{
  a b c d
}
