bug#11237: 23.3; option word-wrap not saved or at least not used on next emacs invocation --text follows this line--

[e.c.]

From: eminmn@sysmatrix.net (Ed C.)
To: bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org
Subject: 23.3; option word-wrap not saved or at least not used on next
emacs invocation
--text follows this line--

*******
Options > Line wrapping in this buffer > Wrap at window edge and then
save options will not set up window edge line wrapping in future
sessions. (word-wrap nil) is written to the custom-set-variables section
of .emacs but the default visual line mode is always used instead.
I can get the behavior I want by writing (global-visual-line-mode -1) to
the end of my .emacs instead. Shouldn't this be what is done if the user
effectively wants the default to be window edge wrapping when Save for
future sessions is chosen in Cuscomize?
