Hello,
My Lilypond knowledge is small but have you tried the "\unset" command ??

Yes, thanks, but this is not what I'm looking after: At the start of
my function (created with `define-music-function`), `\autoBeamOff`
gets called (i.e., the `autoBeaming` context variable is set to
`##t`), and after the function returns the previous value of
`autoBeaming` should be restored.

It doesn't work, I've tested it. Maybe I made a mistake, though...
