To be exact, it does not eliminate the numbering, but it changes the numbering 
to be separate within each suffix. So if you use a different suffix for each 
output file, you won't see any numbering, but if you use the same suffix for 
two files, they will still be numbered and no output file will be overwritten 
(which was the main concern for adding the numbering).

Actually, that's not true. -1 will be the key for the lookup in the alist... 
There is no comparison with the actual suffix, just with the value that was 
looked up from the alist, so I don't think that case would be a problem.

I would rather use ly:parser-define!, if we can find out why it doesn't work. 
It's simply cleaner than using a global variable...

Good question. I have absolutely no idea, though.

Yes, that's also quite some work, but it gives you a good insight into the 
whole lilypond distribution... 
What I usually do is to simply search the whole lilypond directory for the 
keyword (output-suffix in this case) and check all files where that keyword 
appears manually to see whether any of them needs some updates, too.

You can ignore all files in directories called out/ or out-www/.
