Olivier,

Don't know for sure, but this might very well be a 32/64-bit issue. 
Could you attempt running it using a 32-bit version of MiKTeX?

32-bit binaries can't execute a 64-bit binary within the same process 
and I would guess that Lilypond-book is attempting to run MiKTeX within 
the same (Windows) process rather than having Windows start a completely 
new 64-bit process to run MiKTeX and pick up the results of MiKTeX 
processing afterwards.

regards,
Hans
