(elisp) info node Defining Minor Modes starts this way:
"The macro `define-minor-mode' offers a convenient way of
implementing a mode in one self-contained definition. It supports only
buffer-local minor modes, not global ones."
The second sentence is incorrect. A few lines later, the doc correctly
says this:
"`:global GLOBAL'
If non-`nil' specifies that the minor mode should be global.
By default, minor modes are buffer-local."
