I think it's fine that we restrict the use of local to within a
function.  In fact, dash (Debian and Ubuntu's default /bin/sh) exits
unsuccessfully if you use local outside of a function.

Is there some place in particular that you've found we're using it
outside of a function?  I don't know about others, but I'm certainly
interested in fixing these.  It looks like we do use it in a function in
t0000 itself, though.
