This problem greatly decreases the value of the #local declaration: you
can't have a local identifier with a different data type from a same-named
global identifier.

e.g. you can't:

(main file) #declare anItem=4;
(include file) #local anItem="test"

This restriction should be at least signaled in the final docs...
