compile.el and kill-all-local-variables

[Marcus Harnisch]

Hi there

I would like to have the variable
`compilation-error-regexp-systems-list' buffer-local. I don't see much
of a point to drag all those error parsing regexps across my entire
XEmacs. However, in `compilation-mode' there is a nasty call to
kill-all-local-variables rendering my efforts useless.

Does anyone know why this is in there? Doesn't occur to
me. Unfortunately there are some loosely specified error regexps
that do a catch all, shadowing some of my own definitions.

Actually there is an interesting email, which might provide a clue, to
be found here http://osdir.com/ml/emacs.sources/2004-03/msg00031.html
