After some more investigation, in the end the find-auto-coding of
mule.el is what is called to detect the coding. This function calls some
re-coding regexp.

Here is a test function defining the same regexp.


(defun doit ()
  (interactive)
  (let* ((prefix (regexp-quote "[comment]: # ("))
	 (suffix (regexp-quote ")"))
	 (re-coding
	  (concat
	   "[\r\n]" prefix
	   ;; N.B. without the \n below, the regexp can
	   ;; eat newlines.
	   "[ \t]*coding[ \t]*:[ \t]*\\([^ \t\r\n]+\\)[ \t]*"
	   suffix "[\r\n]")))
    (message (if (looking-at re-coding) "ok" "nak"))))

I tried it with point at end of line

[comment]: # ( Local Variables: )

and it answered "ok". Now I defined this with re-search-forward instead
of looking-at:

(defun doit ()
  (interactive)
  (let* ((prefix (regexp-quote "[comment]: # ("))
	 (suffix (regexp-quote ")"))
	 (re-coding
	  (concat
	   "[\r\n]" prefix
	   ;; N.B. without the \n below, the regexp can
	   ;; eat newlines.
	   "[ \t]*coding[ \t]*:[ \t]*\\([^ \t\r\n]+\\)[ \t]*"
	   suffix "[\r\n]")))
    (message (if (re-search-forward re-coding nil t) "ok" "nak"))))

I placed the point before the coding: line, and I also got answer "ok"

So I don't think that the regexp as such is to blame. Something else
seems to happen. It is too late now, I need to go to bed...

  Vincent.
