Hmmm, good question. This is "obviously" a fancy variable assignment,
and so there would be no word splitting after expansion. So quotes
wouldn't be needed here, just as with a simple assignment. bash and
ash seem to work this way.
dash doesn't though, and a padantic reading of the bash man page
suggests that the dash behaviour may be more correct: i.e., local
is just a command, whose arguments are expanded in the usual way,
even if it happens to assign variables as part of its behaviour.
So, while I'm not sure whether or not quotes are officially needed here,
I guess we should have them to be on the safe side.

Happy to change it along those lines. It's certainly possible this will
be needed again later for some future arch header.
Also, foo && bar exits the shell if foo yields false and set -e is in
effect, so I've reverted back to using an if.
(I'm still a little confused though, since I struggled to reproduce this
behaviour outside the script.)
Cheers
