thanks for your suggestion, reinhold, it was one of the first things i  
tried before posting to the list. but is it supposed to work? when i  
try to compile (2.12.1) i get this:

warning: type check for `flag' failed; value `no-flag' must be of type  
`unknown'

as i see it, the problem lies precisely in the discrepancy between the  
property "flag" for the straight flags and "flag-style" for no-flag.

the temporary solution i found is using \revert Stem #'flag before  
\override Stem #'flag-style = #'no-flag. quite dirty...

alles gute,
