# Whether `name [1]` indexes a local or calls a method with an array depends
# on whether the scope it is written in bound the name before it. A `def`,
# `class` or `module` sees no local bound outside it, a block's locals end
# with the block, and a pattern, a named regexp group and a lambda parameter
# each bind a local.
