Interesting. I got rid of local constants when translating Mizar
proofs to TPTP by introducing exactly the kind of axioms that Henkin
uses (http://www.springerlink.com/content/b7383x43l55p1183/).

To make things even merrier, there is also herbrandization
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herbrandization).
