Ok, I just followed yout instructions (without knowing what I really do 
because I'm not an Emacs expert at all). It gave me the following error 
trace:

`hack-local-variables-hook' is a variable declared in Lisp.
   -- loaded from 
"/export/builds/s9-release/s9_u0ccd_03/usr/src/cmd/xemacs/xemacs-21.1.14/lisp/files.elc"

Value: nil


Without knowing anything about hooks, I guess that this value is not 
funky. Am I right? ;-)


Greetings and thank you very much for your help!
