As other explained, the syntax would not work for functions (and it is
not intended to).
A possible use case I had in mind is to define inlined modules to be
used as bunches
of attributes. For instance, I could define a module as
module m():
a = 1
b = 2
where 'module' would be the following function:
def module(name, args, dic):
mod = types.ModuleType(name, dic.get('__doc__'))
for k in dic: setattr(mod, k, dic[k])
return mod
