I don't know about the missing colon, but
-- User Option: case-fold-search
This buffer-local variable determines whether searches should
ignore case. If the variable is `nil' they do not ignore case;
otherwise they do ignore case.
hence

does not look for the exact string.
Oops, I failed to actually read the code and just assumed it bound
case-fold-search to nil -- after all, the Emacs manual always
capitalizes both words.
So why does hack-local-variables bind case-fold-search to t? Is that
not a bug?
