That was likely a temporary fix before an actual repair is effected.

This might help the problem from spreading.

The thing is, the entire channel for the binding may not have had glue properly applied, and there is a reasonable chance that other portions of the binding will continue to come loose over time.

Yes, you can effect spot repairs...and there may be several of these required in this guitar's future...

...or the one fix might be all that's necessary. We don't know.

That's the risk you're taking by keeping this particular guitar.
