Recently there was a bug fix in outline.el so that subheadings get highlighted
differently.  But, there remains the problem that when one uses

(setq outline-minor-mode-highlight 'override)

the headings with "(defmacro", "(defvar", "(defun" loose their code highlighting
feature.  In addition to all other elisp code type of headings starting with "(".

Please try

(setq outline-minor-mode-highlight 'append)

It does exactly what you want.

I can see that it works.  Although all those options are quite confusing.
There is no advantage it removing code highlighting.  That was one reason
I suggested for code structures not to be considered as headlines, but as
code structures that can be hidden or shown.
