I did use emacs -Q for the bug report.

I see the same symptoms when using
% emacs &

where:
custom-file    is "/eng/eng10/amscott1/.emacs-customize"
user-init-file is "/eng/eng10/amscott1/.emacs"

C-h C-f ~/.mailrc

After answering "!" in the *Local Variables* buffer,

C-h v safe-local-variable-values returns nil

FYI, both my ~/.emacs and ~/.emacs-customize are normally
write-protected (under RCS), but even when checked out and running the
same commands after emacs invocation, I don't see changes to
safe-local-variables-values nor any files.
