local/typeset stupidity

[Nikolai Weibull <mailing-lists.zsh-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Why the <profanity> doesn't local work like one would expect?  If i
write

func () {
	local s="..."
}

then I don't expect zsh to respond with

func:local:1: not valid in this context: 100

right?  Even with

setopt typesetsilent # (how can't this be the default?)

this bitches at me.

local s; s="..."

works fine, though, even with typesetsilent off.  I'm nonplused by
this...
