This change gives me an error.
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-variable caps-lock-mode)
(if caps-lock-mode (add-hook (quote pre-command-hook) (function
caps-lock--pch)
nil t) (remove-hook (quote pre-command-hook) (function caps-lock--pch) t))
(defvar caps-lock-mode
Without that change, the buffer local issue is fixed.
