Yes, I am quite sure.

If in outputlib.scm I say

(define (find-notehead-symbol duration style)
  (cons "2xcircle" "music"))

such that it always returns a constant value, and
if I run a file (e.g. wtk1-fugue1.ly) with

   \property Staff.NoteHead \set #'style = #'xyz

then I get crossed circles, as expected.  If I say

   \property Staff.NoteHead \set #'style = #'()

then I get lots of error messages.  Hence, the scm function is not the
cause, since it constantly returns the same value.
