The manpage does not indicate this; it just says:

the set of shell options is made local to the function in which local is
invoked: shell options changed using the set builtin inside the function
are restored to their original values when the function returns.

So...

$ testfunc() { shopt -p -o pipefail; local -; set -o pipefail; shopt -p
-o pipefail; }
$ testfunc; shopt -p -o pipefail
set +o pipefail
set -o pipefail
set +o pipefail

Seems to work okay, fortunately.
