If the latter is the purpose, then I believe that that purpose should
be documented in the docstring and also that the variable should be
renamed to ielm-buffer or something similar, because buf can just too
easily be overridden.
The documentation of IELM mentions some variables meant for user
expressions, but does not mention `buf' that way. So I don't think
this is a feature meant for users. I would suggest deleting it. You
could check whether old versions of IELM used `buf' in some other way.
