bug#23933: 25.1.50; Run a buffer-local hook with mapc

No, the issue is simply that `run-hooks' takes a symbol as argument.
You can do (run-hooks '<mydynvar>) because (symbol-value '<mydynvar>)
works, but you can't do (run-hooks '<mylexvar>) because (symbol-value
'<mylexvar>) won't work.

Using `run-hooks' on a let-bound variable is just a bad idea (just like
mixing let-binding and buffer-local binding on the same variable is
asking for trouble).
