This is really annoying, isn't it? Can't we make those builtin-aliases 
like `local', `integer', etc. be quiet in such cases? Or at least
`local' because when that is used one will almost always not be
interested in the output. (But then, one might want to do `$(local)'. Hm.)

No, the patch is still on its way...

local opt (bug?)

[Alexandre Duret-Lutz]

Has `local opt' a special meaning ?

~/zsh % zsh -f
mars% local opt
mars% local opt
opt=''                            <- how strange !
mars% 

If this is a _feature_ there is at least a problem in _argument,
that is: when _argument does `local opt' twice, this mess 
up the command line, e.g. :

mars% autoload compinit; compinit -D
mars% cd ~/zsh
mars% ./configure --pre<TAB>
mars% ./configure --preopt=''
fix=<CURSORHERE>

Have I missed something ?
