Subject: f() { local -ar path=(/bin); };f gives an error
Date: Sun, 26 Nov 2017 23:21:01 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171126232101.GA8393@chaz.gmail.com> (raw)

FYI,

someone reported this on unix.stackexchange.com:
https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/407125/why-cant-i-define-a-readonly-variable-named-path-in-zsh

Which looks like a bug:

$ zsh -c 'f() { local -ar path=(/bin); }; f'
f: read-only variable: path
$ /zsh --version
zsh 5.4.2-dev-0 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu)

See also the answer there by someone would did some investigation already.
