This is not a bug. This is a changed behaviour of file-local variables.
Now, they are loaded early before most of the Org setup is done in the
buffer; before folding is configured. Hence, the error.

Note that a proper setting of startup visibility should be done via
#+startup keyword:

#+STARTUP: show2levels

Best,
