Local takes precedence.  Or at least, that seems so obvious to me
that I must be missing something; if so, what is it? :-)  But then,
the question is academic, because ...

Point taken.  IMO it would be worth changing the implementation
from a set (or six) to a list to get an ordered ignore file,
but *not* worth adding a lot of new mechanism, e.g. an ignore
cache.
