The manual says (under "Bar Lines"):

The command \bar bartype is a short cut for doing
\property Score.whichBar = bartype

The property is used by the timing engraver which you have moved to 
staff level, and hence you need to also move the property setting to 
staff level:

\property Staff.whichBar = "|."

The explanation why the property setting in score level is not correctly 
inherited down to the staff level is a bit hairy: In each moment the 
timing engraver SETS the property (on its own level) and hence this 
setting (from the moment before) takes precedence over your manual 
override on score level.

Btw, with my resent (yesterday) patch, the Bar_number_engraver complains 
if it is located on a higher level than the timing_engraver. I would not 
consider this a bug (Han-Wen?) because printing bar numbers on score 
level does not make much sense when the different staves have different 
timing.
Well, with latest cvs you have to remove the Bar_number_engraver from 
score level.
If you wish you can add it to staff level to (correctly) get bar numbers 
above each staff.
