As the checkin message says, this is once again a problem on trunk. The 
relevant test is still in place in test_super.py, I just marked it as an 
expected failure.

unittest.mock is currently avoiding the problem via the "_safe_super = super" 
workaround.

So, we need a new patch which fixes the misbehaviour *without* breaking the new 
tests I just added. I'm thinking something which special cases __class__ 
references in a ClassBlock to be dual purpose (i.e. both locals *and* closure 
variables) may be necessary, rather than the current approach of always 
coercing them to be closure variables.
