I don't see any really good solution. Of course, you could put your
.ly files into .../share/lilypond/2.6.x/ly/ or wherever the default
initialization files are installed on your machine. The problem comes
when you upgrade your LilyPond installation, since then you have to
remember to copy these files to the new installation directory (and
remember which files to copy). On the other hand, you may have to
run convert-ly on the files anyway to make them conform to the new
LilyPond version, so then it could make sense to keep them together
with the specific installation.

Perhaps a better solution is to write a one-line script that just
calls lilypond with an added -I flag that specifies the directory
where you have your own global .ly files.
