Non-nil, in a Customization buffer, means customize a specific buffer.
If this variable is non-nil, it should be a buffer, and it means
customize the local bindings of that buffer. This variable is a
permanent local, and it normally has a local binding in every
Customization buffer.
My remarks:
Note, that the global value got set, unlike what is claimed in the
documentation string.
I think you misread the doc string--the variable is local only
in Custom buffers, and *scratch* is not one. The setq did
exactly what it should do.
"and it means customize the local bindings of that buffer."
Does this mean: *if* the variable *already* has a buffer-local binding
or no matter what?
I see the confusion here. It actually sets the binding currently
visible in that buffer, whether that is a local binding or the global
one.
Perhaps we should change it to make the variable buffer-local if it is
not. Per, what do you think?
