The ini* and vir* names have been removed from web2c (for good reasons,
e.g. to reduce inconsistencies in TEXINPUTS.progname
and array sizes, e.g. main_memory.progname settings in texmf.cnf).

For getting the "initex" functionality, just use the engine of your
choice, e.g. pdfetex and pass -ini, so e.g.
  pdfetex -ini '&pdfetex musixtex.ins \dump'
or
  tex -ini '&tex musixtex.ins \dump'
