New issue 3519 by address@hidden: layout settings aren't merged  
properly
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=3519

\version "2.17.24"

\markup \justify {
  If there are multiple layout blocks, their effects should be
  combined - in this case, stems should be thicker and noteheads
  should be red.  However, this doesn't work if one layout block
  is inside "\score" and the other one is outside (try putting
  both outside and it'll work):
}

\score {
  { c' d' e' f' }
  \layout { \override Stem #'thickness = #5 }
}

\layout { \override NoteHead #'color = #red }

\markup \justify {
  Note that placing all layout blocks outside "\score" isn't a
  good solution.  Sometimes i have several different scores,
  and i'd like to have a set of shared settings while at the
  same time some settings should be different.  In that case,
  the different settings have to be in layout blocks inside
  respective "\scores":
}

% i want noteheads to be red in all scores, so this has to
% be placed in a \layout block outside \scores:
\layout { \override NoteHead #'color = #red }

\score {
  { c' d' e' f' }
  % i want this score to have very thick stems
  \layout { \override Stem #'thickness = #5 }
}

\score {
  { c' d' e' f' }
  % i want this score to have only slightly thicker stems
  \layout { \override Stem #'thickness = #2 }
}
