 (make-local-variable 'kill-buffer-hook))

To expand this a bit, the following steps highlight a problem,
starting from emacs -Q:

1) Eval "(custom-set-variables '(global-auto-revert-mode t)
'(save-place-mode t nil (saveplace)))" in the *scratch* buffer. Now
kill-buffer-hook contains save-place-to-alist.

2) Open another file. Now save-place-alist is gone from the hook.

When changing autorevert.el to use add-hook's "local" parameter, the
problem does not occur.
