Yeah, what I wrote didn't quite capture what I meant: - in Python 2.x, using LOAD_DEREF when a nested class body references a lexically scoped name is correct - in Python 3.x, it is no longer correct, because __prepare__ may inject additional names that the compiler doesn't know about Previously, the compiler new just as much about the nested class namespaces as it did about the function locals.
