Thank you, exactly what I have missed. Allow me to mention that I would like this hint to be added to the Help documentation of org-outline-level where I looked before.
There is something more with org-outline-level in org-version 6.31a which I still don't understand because I am not aware of some functions used in its implementation. I drilled down the quite special situation to the following file content. I hope that the indentation of x by three spaces does not get lost in the mailing list archive:
-*- eval: (org-mode) -*-
x
After opening this file and confirming `eval', org-outline-level reports `3' (changes when changing the indentation of x) but I expect it to report someting like `0', `1000' or `1001' or similar like it does with variations like e. g.
-*- mode: org -*-
x
