I was going to apply this, there having been no comments, but then I
noticed that since the advent of portable dumper (or since 978cf88 at
least), it's not completely right. It adds an entry for buffer-undo-list
to buffer-local-variables, but with key = "nil" rather than
"buffer-undo-list". Which implies that
PER_BUFFER_SYMBOL (PER_BUFFER_VAR_OFFSET (undo_list))
now returns nil instead of 'buffer-undo-list.
