Hi,

AUCTeX 14.x changed major-mode names from latex-mode to LaTeX-mode. As
indicated in the relevant changes file, the local variables added by
AUCTeX at the bottom of a file are now

    %%% Local Variables:
    %%% mode: LaTeX      <-- not `latex'
    %%% End:

However, it seems like this is not enough. It might be that a minor mode
calls hack-local-variables after AUCTeX is loaded; what will happen then
is that the regular latex-mode is activated, and AUCTeX vanishes!

The reason for that is that hack-local-variables eventually calls
hack-one-local-variable, which features this piece of code:

    (defun hack-one-local-variable (var val)
      "...DOCSTRING..."
      (pcase var
        ('mode                      ; vvvvvvvv
         (let ((mode (intern (concat (downcase (symbol-name val))
                                     "-mode"))))
           (unless (eq (indirect-function mode)
                       (indirect-function major-mode))
             (funcall mode))))
        …))

In other words, LaTeX-mode gets turned into latex-mode anyways.
Curiously, executing this does indeed drop one down into the built in
latex-mode—it seems that the settings in major-mode-remap-alist are
ignored somehow.

This is not a theoretical issue, and has happened with a particular
minor mode (that issue was fixed, but I reckon there are potentially
more modes out there that do something like this).

I'm not sure there to report this (Is this an Emacs bug with repect to
major-mode-remap-alist not being respected? or hack-one-local-variable
just downcasing the mode?) so I will try here first.

Thanks!
  Tony

> Yup, things are working as expected with that patch applied. Thank you!

Great, thank you, pushed.

[ That was an oversight from many years ago (until Emacs-28, that code
  was identical to the body of `set-auto-mode-0` and that was short
  enough that it wasn't important to use the function) which I failed to
  noticed when I changed `set-auto-mode-0` for Emacs-29.1.  ]
