Why should it?  word-wrap is automatically made local, so the `setq' is
really like (set (make-local-variable 'word-wrap) t), thus not changing
the global value at which is you'll be looking in the end.

In a new buffer evaluate this:

  (put 'word-wrap 'permanent-local t)
  (setq word-wrap t)
  (kill-all-local-variables)

and then look at word-wrap. It is nil, but it should be t.
