c-file-style in buffer local variables does not work

[Kan-Ru Chen]

http://emacsbugs.donarmstrong.com/4146

Seems introduced by a commit on MAIN branch and later fixed in the
EMACS_23_1_RC branch. But the fix did not merge back to cvs head,
c-file-style is still broken.

I have just reverted it in the CVS HEAD.  It should be "OK", now.

Looks like you forgot to make a ChangeLog entry.

Also, I guess the issue that you made this change to solve is now
back, though I haven't tested it:

Yep.  Somehow making that patch felt too easy, as though I'd forgotten
something.  I've done the ChangeLog entry now, thanks for the reminder.

That's what the quotes round "OK" were alluding to.

Fixing it properly will require a lot of patience, a lot of bloody
mindedness, and a high toleration for mindless tedium.  I'll get round to
it sometime, assuming a fix is possible.  Note that this code is now the
same as what's in 23.1, about which nobody's complained so far.  But yes,
it is a bug.
