This is exactly what I'm looking for (and for my problem it is
OK that I revert to local variables). 

But now I have a new problem: Exceptions thrown by 'load' can not
be caught!

For example,

begin
   load ".defaultpar"
rescue
   puts "file not found"
end

If the file does not exist, I get the error message

  in `load': no such file to load -- .defaultpar (LoadError)

Of course I can circumvent it by testing before for the existence
of the file, but I wonder how I can find (from the Ruby specification),
which exceptions can be caught by "rescue" and which ones can not.
