everything looks fine except for one small detail: the stem has rounded
tips, while the barline is rectangular (see the second image).

can this be changed?

The only way I know to do this is to create your own filled box to replace the stem.  You can incorporate the following override, which specifies a rounded box with no rounding of the corners:

 \override Stem.stencil = #(lambda (grob)

    (let ((th (ly:output-def-lookup (ly:grob-layout grob) 'line-thickness)))

      (ly:make-stencil

        `(round-filled-box

           0 (* 1.3 ,th)

           0.8125 0.8125

           0)

         (cons 0 (* 1.3 th))

         (cons 0.8125 0.8125))))

HTH,
