Because I want this setup for only one file, and not necessarily globally.
BTW, I'll probably settle with this:
,----
| #+LATEX_CLASS: mwbk
| # Local Variables:
| # org-latex-classes: (("mwbk" "\\documentclass[11pt]{mwbk}" ("\\chapter{%s}"
. "\\chapter*{%s}") ("\\section{%s}" . "\\section*{%s}")))
| # End:
`----
Seems to do the trick (mwbk is a Polish-localized - or rather, European
- version of the book class). The drawback is that it keeps asking for
confirmation that it is safe. It seems that there is no option to mark
a /variable/ and not a /variable-value pair/ as "safe" as file local
variables - I guess I'll file an Emacs feature request for that.

Thanks to all, and best regards!
