You cannot mutate global lists in RPython code. (It's fine to do it outside the RPython-compiled function, of course.) If you need global state it should be put on a prebuilt global instance of a class that you defined. Note btw that the Smalltalk interpreter in PyPy should probably be modified to have a 'space' object passed around; the 'space' would play precisely the role of the global state. That's far cleaner than what we came up with during the Bern sprint, which is to patch module-global objects from various places. For example, all the globals in objspace.py should go on such a 'space', and the 'space' would be populated either by the image loader or manually for smaller tests.
