Try --verbose, it works for me (using a6, that's easier to check than letter)

    \version "2.3.22"
    \paper {
        #(set-paper-size "a6")
    }

    \relative  {
         c' d e f g\break
         c d e f g\break
    }

    Output written on x.dvi (1 page, 3188 bytes).
    Transcript written on x.log.
    Invoking "dvips -t a6   -u+ec-mftrace.map -u+lilypond.map -Ppdf x"

    Converting to `x.pdf'...

There is, however, some name juggling going on in the TeX backend
only, wrt papersize and papersizename.  I would have removed all
instances of papersizename, but I'd like to hear Han-Wen's thoughts.
