Argh, a bug I introduced shortly before the release. ;-)

Do you know if XEmacs has some similar feature, i.e., a way to check
which variables have been set using file (or directory) local variables?
For reference, `file-local-variables-alist' is

  ((LaTeX-verbatim-macros-with-braces-local "hugo")
   (fill-column . 120))

in a buffer containing

% Local Variables:
% fill-column: 120
% End:

that corresponds to a file in a directory with a .dir-locals.el
containing

((latex-mode . ((LaTeX-verbatim-macros-with-braces-local . ("hugo")))))

[I think XEmacs has no directory local variables, so we can probably
ignore that.]

Bye,
