Two errors in this (at least wrt the version I reported, a recent trunk build):

1. It's `clear-transient-map', not `clear-temporary-map'.
2. It's `set-temporary-overlay-map', not `set-temporary-map'.

#1 explains why grepping for `clear-temporary-map' gave no hits.
(Yes, I should have consulted my original report, which mentioned
`clear-transient-map', instead of your reply about `clear-temporary-map'.)

So there is no great difficulty for a user to find this, after all.
