How about the solutin I sent with mumamo-save-buffer-locals and dito
restore? I suggested something like this
(mumamo-save-buffer-locals major-mode)
(funcall new-major-mode)
(mumamo-restore-buffer-locals new-major-mode)
There is however a problem with this and the major mode hook. Things in
this hook might want to change some buffer local variables.
I think putting the restore part first in the mode solves some part of
the problem. For this to work however delay-mode-hooks must be temporary
set to nil (see the sources for `run-mode-hooks'). I have no idea what
delayed-mode-hooks is used for so I do not know if setting
delay-mode-hooks to nil may cause problems here.
