Found the culprit. Lets looks at the following code.
code = """
x = x+1
def f():
return x
print(x, f())
"""
x = 5
exec(code)
x = 5
exec(code, globals(), {})
When exec is called without any locals, it works as we expected and x
in f is bound to the x in the code.
But when we supply a locals dict to exec, it behaves differently. The
x in f is bound to global x.
I'm not sure why we have this confusing behavior.
