This works for me, thanks.  But there seems to be a left-over problem
with this change, at least on a TTY: when I finish customizing the
value and hit RET on the "Set for current session" button, Emacs
signals an error:

   custom-variable-set: Selecting deleted buffer

The customization does take effect, this error notwithstanding.
