should carry over the values, but on this 5.10.0, it exhibits inconsitent behaviour:

Saving the values keeps the localizing behaviour:

>perl -le "@l=qw(a b c);$b=3;do{my@v=@::{@l};local @::{@l};print $b;$b
+=2;print $b};print $b"

"Resetting" the values destroys the localizing behaviour:

>perl -le "@l=qw(a b c);$b=3;do{my@v=@::{@l};local @::{@l}=@v;print $b
+;$b=2;print $b};print $b"

The same failure with the direct assignment:

>perl -le "@l=qw(a b c);$b=3;do{local @::{@l} = @::{@l};print $b;$b=2;
+print $b};print $b"

I would consider this inconsistency a bug, but maybe it's already fixed in 5.10.1 or 5.11.
