As I stumbled upon bug #15607, I fiddled with this buffer local variable
and found that evaluating
(setq default-directory nil)
in *scratch* buffer would cause emacs hang forever.
I wonder if it's a bug so I'd ask here first.
How does buffer local variable do the magic in the low level that it
automatically becomes permanently buffer-local when set? Anyone
shedding some light on this would help me find out the cause of
bug #15607 in my environment.
