this doesn't.
Neither am I, but apparently something makes the variable
buffer-local. xemacs -vanilla (and Lispref, BTW) tells me that they
are global by default. It is also recommended (in Lispref) to make 'em
buffer-local if desired. I am not sure if *that* makes sense. Is it
considered "good style" to change the scope of a built-in
variable. Why not make both variables buffer-local to begin with? The
global binding could always be changed with setq-default.
