I've just pushed a fix like that and also declared the LaTeX-verbatim-*-local variables as safe-local-variables in case their value is a list of strings. I briefly tested that it works as expected with both a file-local variables section and a .dir-locals.el file. Could you give it a try and report back so that I can close the bug then? Bye, Tassilo
