Enabling jinx using a directory variable

[arapede]

Hi! I raised a question on reddit the other day about enabling jinx using a file-local variable. Thanks for the speedy fix! I think there's a similar issue enabling it with directory variables.

I create an empty directory, create a file .dir-locals.el with the contents ((nil . ((mode . jinx)))), and then create a new file test.txt. When I open the last of these I get an error: Directory-local variables error: (error Lisp nesting exceeds ‘max-lisp-eval-depth’).

Thanks for all the great work.

Thanks for the report. Please check if 1e25c7d fixes the issue. Otherwise I think I may have to use a different approach for the local variables, since the API is just too brittle.

Yes, I just tried it and it seems to work just fine. Many thanks again for resolving both issues so fast!

Unfortunately I had to revert the fix again, due to the more important issue #161.

EDIT: Pushed another fix for this problem, see d4c67d2.

Brilliant. Just to confirm that the latest fix still works for me.
