It happens to contain a shell-script (depcomp) near the end of the tarfile, and that shell-script happens to have a footer that starts fewer than 3000 characters from the end of the tarfile, and happens to contain: # Local Variables: # mode: shell-script # sh-indentation: 2 # eval: (add-hook 'write-file-hooks 'time-stamp) # time-stamp-start: "scriptversion=" # time-stamp-format: "%:y-%02m-%02d.%02H" # time-stamp-time-zone: "UTC" # time-stamp-end: "; # UTC" # End: (The mode setting is superfluous since it begins with #!/bin/sh anyway.) So hack-local-variables decides the tarfile should be in sh-mode.
