visiting certain .c file adds to kill ring

[Kevin Ryde]

With my recent cvs build or the debian snapshot, and starting from
"emacs -Q", visiting the file foo.c below with

        C-x C-f foo.c

leaves the first line in the kill ring,

        C-y
        => inserts "/* hello */

where I hoped it would leave the kill ring alone.  (In particular it's
not good to have the kill changed when you're doing a cut and paste
from another file into that one.)

I suspect c-remove-any-local-eval-or-mode-variables in cc-mode.el
shouldn't be using kill-line, but cc-mode is hellishly complicated ...
