Is this short enough and clear enough?
"Consider using `make-local-variable' instead"
The context (line #) should make it clear what the "instead" refers to.
This way we're just drawing the user's attention to the possibility
that it might be more appropriate to use `make-local-variable' in that
context. It's up to the user to check what that means, by checking the
doc.
If we could include a reference to the manual that would be even better.
The node is (elisp) `Creating Buffer-Local'. If a link is not possible
then perhaps just add text. Is this too long (dunno)?
"Consider using `make-local-variable' instead [(elisp) Creating Buffer-Local]
(Yes, links or textual references from product to doc can mean more
maintenance, unless they can be updated automatically. But they can
help users.)
