Bug Description

Reinhard Kotucha reports (viewmail-info, 2 Dec 2013)

Hi, I'm using VM 8.1.1 with Emacs 23 for a while without any problems.
When I switch to Emacs 24 I get a complaint that the function
make-local-hook is void.

The Emacs 24 NEWS file states:

 | ** The following obsolete functions and aliases have been removed
 | (the appropriate new function is given in parentheses; "not needed"
 | means you can just remove all calls to the function in question):
 |
 | [stuff omitted]
 | *** `make-local-hook' (not needed)
 | [stuff omitted]

According to "grep -r make-local-hook ./vm/*" it's still used in some
places. It doesn't occur in Emacs-24's top-level lisp directory. In
some subdirectories it's still present, but I see that there are some
functions called "gnus-make-local-hook" or "mh-make-local-hook". I
suppose that they are supposed to sustain the same functionality under
another name. Maybe something like "vm-make-local-hook" is needed as
a workaround...
