I'm not standards obsessed like some people in these newsgroups; I care
more about desirable functionality. In this case, I would not be surprised
to hear that the dash behavior is more POSIX-ly correct,
Surprisingly, "local" isn't part of the POSIX shell language at all.
Its only mention is under "If the command name matches the name of
a utility listed in the following table, the results are unspecified".
Is there any POSIX-y shell that does not implement "local"?
