bug#44066: 27.1; Values ignored when using .dir-locals.el and .dir-locals-2.el together |

Hello,
I've experienced a case where some directory local variable values are
ignored when .dir-locals.el and .dir-locals-2.el are both present in a
directory. As Emacs normally sets all the variable values when only one
of the files is present, and I can find nothing in the manual to suggest
that the behavior should be different when both are present, I believe
this behavior is erroneous.
To reproduce, first create a directory with 3 files with the filenames
and the contents listed below:
= file.txt =
test file
= .dir-locals.el =
((nil . ((eval . (setq var1 'foo)) (eval . (setq var2 'bar)))))
= .dir-locals-2.el =
((nil . ((eval . (setq var3 'baz)) (eval . (setq var4 'qux)))))
Then run:
emacs -Q file.txt
Emacs should display a prompt with a message beginning "The local
variables list in /path/to/the/dir/ contains values that may not be safe
(*)" with a list of potentially unsafe values at the bottom.
I expect to see the following values listed in some order:
* eval : (setq var1 'foo)
* eval : (setq var2 'bar)
* eval : (setq var3 'baz)
* eval : (setq var4 'qux)
Instead, only the following values are listed:
* eval : (setq var4 'qux)
* eval : (setq var2 'bar)
If I then type ! to accept the values, evaluating each variable via M-:
will confirm that only var2 and var4 have been set and that var1 and
var3 are unbound.
If I quit Emacs, delete .dir-locals-2.el, and follow the above steps
again, the prompt now lists all the values from .dir-locals.el as
expected:
* eval : (setq var1 'foo)
* eval : (setq var2 'bar)
Similarly if I delete .dir-locals.el but keep .dir-locals-2.el intact,
the prompt lists all the values from .dir-locals-2.el as expected:
* eval : (setq var3 'baz)
* eval : (setq var4 'qux)
Autogenerated system info follows. Thank you.
