Hrm, I wonder if that, combined with "typeset" automatically creating
locals when called in a function context (also a POSIX incompatibility?) 
defeats the whole purpose of an unset readonly?

Actually it probably undermines readonly for variables that are set, too,
so I probably shouldn't worry about it because it isn't changing.
