Glad to hear it!

This is where your removal of the bug list address from the Cc: counts
against you. I actually know nothing about org mode, but other people
reading the list actually know quite a lot.
However, I looked into the org mode manual, and see you can write
comments by starting a line with "#". The "Local Variables:" line is
quite happy being after a comment marker, so you could write your LV
list entirely in org mode comments:
# Local Variables:
# ...
# End:

Just one or two tips on getting quick help in the future. Your post
would have been more appropriate on help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org, since it was
not clear that it was an actual Emacs bug. (As it turned out, it
wasn't.) Please, as already mentioned, leave in the list address when
you reply. That way, more people get to see the problem, and there is a
complete record of the thread in the archives.
Anyways, I hope you can now get things sorted out, and continue being a
happy Emacs user. :-)
