I wouldn't expect that to work; here 't' is a global name.
By "local names" I believed he was referring to this situation:
void some_visible_fn (int __name1)
{
int name2;
...
}
Here, name2 shouldn't strictly be needed to be uglified, since it can't
collide with names in user land. The __name1 parameter does, though.
Even so, simply uglifying /all/ the names we use /everywhere/ is probably
a Good Thing.
