I think this would be normal and expected - an installed header would use
a reserved-namespace name for the parameter while the implementation uses
a non-reserved name that's more convenient for use within the
implementation. (Thus anything like this would only be useful if it can
know that it's e.g. OK to have __y and y as the names, and some code no
doubt uses other such conventions relating the two names.)
