Where did this lcl_ convention come from? The lcl_ prefix has no

One way this /did/ have influence on linking was the old mechanism to select symbols for DLL export on Windows, where the available symbols were matched against white/black-lists, and lcl_* was always black-listed. Long gone (and I have no idea why people didn't simply use "static" anyway).
