I did in a separate email -- you said because there can be multiple
local functions with the same name. But local functions is not the only
use case I need.

For now I will carry the patch locally. At this point I am 20 patches
deep and have probably another 20 to go. What's one more. I'll come back
to this when I have more time.

Thanks,
