I have noticed that enabling a minor-mode using texinfo-mode-hook fails after
setting auto-fill comments using a hook.

(add-hook 'texinfo-mode-hook
	  (lambda () ((set (make-local-variable 'comment-auto-fill-only-comments) t)))
(auto-fill-mode)

;; crucible-mode not enabled after setting comment-auto-fill-only-comments
(add-hook 'texinfo-mode-hook 'crucible-mode)
