Comment to my previous message in this thread:

(defalias 'make-local-hook
  (if (featurep 'xemacs)
      'make-local-hook
    'ignore))

is actually the same function that `gnus-make-local-hook'. 

Adding the defalias above is a more generalized backward-compatibility
fix that other packages than Gnus would be aware of.  Should we add it
to Emacs?
