C-h

[Luc Teirlinck]

Do:

emacs -q --eval \
"(progn (blink-cursor-mode 0) (setq enable-local-variables 'ask))" &

I do not believe that the `(blink-cursor-mode 0)' has anything to do
with the problem, but it is impossible for me to test without that,
since a blinking cursor causes neurological problems for me.

C-h

Now wait long enough for echoing to occur.

Then type `n'.

I believe that I now should see the message:

Set local variables as specified at end of NEWS? (y or n)

But I do not.

I believe that this is a bug.

Sincerely,

Luc.
