New issue 1280 by brownian.box: \displayMusic does not properly quote cons  
lilypond properties

Reported by Jeff Epstein,

%-----------------8<--------------------------------
I'm trying to get the \displayMusic for the following:

   c1^\markup {
      \caps \center-align
      \override #'(box-padding . 0.5)
      \box "V. S."}

It results, partially, in this:

 (markup
   #:line
   (#:caps
    (#:center-align
     (#:override (box-padding . 0.5) (#:box "V. S."))))

Note that

(box-padding . 0.5)

should be

'(box-padding . 0.5)


I believe this is a bug.

Thank you. Let me know if there's anything else I can do.

PS. Thanks to Carl Sorensen for helping me discover this.
