Re: enriched-mode problems

[Richard Stallman]

    AUCTeX provides a major mode for editing LaTeX file.  Normally, you
    can generate both dvi files and pdf files from a LaTeX source file.
    AUCTeX provides a minor mode that lets you select the output format.
    You can customize this minor mode to a default that reflects your
    preferred output format.

It doesn't seem right to put that in a file's local variables list.
This is a personal preference issue.
