Why not just:

(with-current-buffer "*Messages*"
   (setq buffer-offer-save t))

so you are queried when you exit emacs whether to save the buffer or
not.  Or:

(with-current-buffer "*Messages*"
   (set-visited-file-name "~/emacs_messages"))

so the buffer is auto-saved during the session, and then you are queried
when you exit.
