Even if there were such syntax, it'd be questionable whether "typeset
-p" should employ it, because that would increase the bash/ksh
dissonance and could not be used with "readonly" or "export" in the
case where POSIX_BUILTINS is set.

Come to think of it, separating this from POSIX_BUILTINS as I did, may
have already reduced (or rather, failed to improve) POSIX
compatibility for those two commands.
