Or insert a ^L.
The start of the local variables list must be no more than 3000
characters from the end of the file, and must be in the last page
if the file is divided into pages. Otherwise, Emacs will not
notice it is there. The purpose of this rule is so that a stray
`Local Variables:' not in the last page does not confuse Emacs,
and so that visiting a long file that is all one page and has no
local variables list need not take the time to search the whole
file.
