Hi
As far as I can see the behavior is correct. If you declare the variables as
you have

then they won't be bound to the Workspace.
If you do not declare them then these variables should be bound to the
Workspace.
You can bring up the Workspace menu and select 'Inspect variables' to see what
is bound.
I did notice though that there is a boolean logic bug compared to squeak 4.1 in
Workspace>>mustDeclareVariableWording
^ mustDeclareVariables not
ifTrue: ['<yes> Automatically create variable declaration'
translated]
ifFalse: ['<no> Automatically create variable declaration'
translated]
The 'not' is missing from Pharo1.3 whereas it should be there. This only
affects the display logic which may confuse users to which mode they are in.

Hi miguel
this is probably linked to the way the workspace keeps its binding to declare
variable.
Can you check in 1.3 because we will release it soon.
