There's no need to hack fonts.scm. The font selection can easily
be overridden by
\property Lyrics . LyricText \override #'font-name = #"csr10"
The problem is bigger if you use a font where the character coding
in the input file is different from the character coding in the
font file. The problem is that LilyPond uses low-level font selection
commands in the generated TeX files, not the NFSS scheme normally
used in LaTeX.
You could take a look at
http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2003-07/msg00047.html
to see some tricks to apply any LaTeX function to each syllable
in a lyrics line. This might help in certain situations.
One practical problem is that the latexpackages header parameter
to include extra latex packages in ly2dvi/lilypond is a bit too
primitive if you have to supply specific options to a specific
package. For example, there's no way to do specify the equivalence
of
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}

I have similar problem. The CM fonts are not satisying in many cases. For
example in czech texts I have to use CS fonts (modification of CM with
proper accents for ISO-8859-2 distributed e.g. with TeTeX). It means I
need to rewrite scm/fonts.scm and substitute all cm* with cs*
equivalents.
There could be something like `font selection'. If is this system
(changing fonts.scm) enough, there should be done some doco. Otherwise...
who know?
