New submission from Chris Morton <chrisgmor...@yahoo.com>:

Compiling (Window 10, MSVS 16):

#include <Python.h>

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
    const char* code = "c=[1,2,3,4]\nd={'list': [c[i] for i in 
range(len(c))]}\nprint(d)\n";

    Py_Initialize();

    PyObject* pycode = Py_CompileString(code, "", Py_file_input );   
    PyObject* main_module = PyImport_AddModule("__main__");
    PyObject* global_dict = PyModule_GetDict(main_module);
    PyObject* local_dict = PyDict_New();
    
    PyEval_EvalCode(pycode, global_dict, local_dict);  // (PyCodeObject*) 
pycode in Python 2.7
    
    Py_Finalize();

    return 0;

and executing yields:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "", line 2, in <module>
  File "", line 2, in <listcomp>
NameError: name 'c' is not defined

While not particularly clever python code, it is not clear why the reference c 
is not in scope having previously been defined. Replacing the clumsy list 
comprehension using range() with c[:] or [ci for ci in c] produces the expected 
result:

{'list': [1, 2, 3, 4]}

This issue is not observed with Python 2.7 (.18).
