Interesting. That would certainly explain why it has not
been made to automatically become buffer-local.
Here is a seemingly relevant entry from src/ChangeLog:
2004-03-02 Kim F. Storm <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
* window.h (struct window): New member
overlay_arrow_bitmap.
* window.c (make_window): Initialize
overlay_arrow_bitmap.
* xdisp.c (Voverlay_arrow_variable_list):
New variable to properly implement and integrate
multiple overlay arrows with redisplay.
[...]
Since the restriction seems to have been lifted, I think we
should remove the paragraph that Ryan quoted from the manual
and make the variable automatically become buffer-local.
