It looks like the current maintainer last updated these ports 8 months ago.

So go ahead and download the current version. Modify lilypond port to
use the latest version (2.4.4), and then submit a diff file with the
changes using send-pr. Also, send a message to the maintainer with the
PR number.  If after several weeks he hasn't responded, ask here again
to have a comitter comit the PR for the port due to maintainer timeout
(you could also ask at that time to take over maintainer ship).

You could also resurrect the lilypond-devel port, by updating it to
2.5.12, and then sending a gzipped tar file of the port in another PR.
