Date: Sat, 07 Jan 2023 20:48:54 -0800

Hello!

It appears that set-buffer-major-mode resets buffer local variables.

To reproduce with `emacs -Q`:

(defvar-local test-var nil)
(setq test-var t)
(message "%s" test-var) ;; t
;; (set-auto-mode)
(set-buffer-major-mode (current-buffer))
(message "%s" test-var) ;; nil

Is this behavior expected?

Thank you!!

Joseph
