Beware: I'm talking about make-variable-buffer-local, which is different
(but I think it's what you want here).

I'm not sure I understand.
The way I see it, we could have a defvar-local macro, i.e. the
make-variable-buffer-local really belongs next to the
corresponding defvar.

If you do want to use make-local-variable rather than
make-variable-buffer-local, then the call to make-local-variable indeed
belongs together with the corresponding `set' (we could have
a setq-local macro for it).
