Well, strictly speaking it isn't, because many shells support it
besides Bash.

I don't remember seeing any complaints about 01d3a526ad (t0000: check
whether the shell supports the "local" keyword, 2017-10-26), but we
only have that commit for a couple or months / two releases, so it's
still too early to start using 'local' in build scripts.
