Hi Lars,

thank you for looking into this.

Sure. The file from which I reported, and which I include here now, was 
just a dummy file with the variable of interest set to true with 
`add-file-local-variable`:

#+name: TargetFile.txt
#+begin_example

;; Local Variables:
;; find-file-visit-truename: t
;; End:
#+end_example

(Also in annex)

As I send you this now, I realize I should perhaps have chosen some 
other file format for the report, as text-mode does not have a 
predefined comment syntax. I don’t know if this is relevant to the local 
variables machinery. I suppose it isn’t, as my initial issue with this 
arose in Org files, for which the comment syntax is clear. But if some 
adjustments on the report for a more proper setting are somehow 
desired/relevant, let me know.

Best regards,
Gustavo.
