Although there are reasons to do this (a 'local' function containing
'command local' would not work, and export, readonly and ksh93's typeset
are special as well), consensus seems to be for local to be a regular
builtin. posh's local was special for a short time, but this was then
reverted.
Nevertheless, it is very nice to have IFS=: read ... working again.
