I will fix this.

    I use `default-fill-column' as an example, but the remarks below seem to
    apply to all variables of the type `default-some-buffer-local-variable'.

    Ielm run:

    *** Welcome to IELM ***  Type (describe-mode) for help.
    ELISP> (local-variable-p 'fill-column)
    nil
    ELISP> fill-column
    70
    ELISP> (setq default-fill-column 75)
    75
    ELISP> fill-column
    70
