I guess this is because the variable is buffer local.  Use
`setq-default` instead of `setq` to set the global binding.

I think it's a bug - in `bib-cite-minor-mode`.  There was obviously
code added for xemacs (which still has `make-local-hook`), but it is
used unconditionally for all Emacsen - thus the error.

To prevent this, avoid turning on bib-cite-minor-mode.  Having
fundamental mode in one buffer (as you saw it) is probably a side effect
of this error.

BTW, please make a bug report if this problem hasn't been reported or
fixed yet.


HTH,
