If the rejection of N2511 in favor of the current lambda is any indication, even the committee finds that local functions an unnecessary complication. What makes you think that bringing N2511 back into C++03 would even make sense especially since there are already approximations to C++11 lambda's?
It's logic really:
1) C++11 lambda > N2511 2) Since Phoenix ~ (C++11 lambda + more) and Local ~ N2511 3) Therefore, Phoenix > N2511 4) QED
No?
No.
Of course, my bad. I don't have my compiler handy, what was I thinking?!

This will be my last comment in this thread :) Your flaw is that Pheonix ~ (C++11 lambda + more), as Phoenix has significant disadvantages compared to C++11 lambda (that have been discussed at length), as well as significant advantages (as you say). Therefore Phoenix is incomparable with C++11 lambda, so Phoenix is comparable with Local. Chris
