The term "Local Preprocessor Argument" doesn't refer to the preprocessor
state at the point of import of a header unit. It refers to the
preprocessor state at the start of translating the header unit TU which
might be different to the preprocessor state at the start of translating
the TU that nominates the import of said header unit.
