-This function does nothing if HOOK is already local in the current buffer.
+This function works by making `t' a member of the buffer-local value,
+which acts as a flag to run the hook functions in the default value as
+well. This works for all normal hooks, but does not work for most
+non-normal hooks yet. We will be changing the callers of non-normal
+hooks so that they can handle localness; this has to be done one by
+one.

Do not use `make-local-variable' to make a hook variable buffer-local."
