Assuming you're concerned about leaking names out of the comprehension into
the class scope, that shouldn't be a problem. (The solution actually
involves leaking names *into* the comprehension scope, but I'm not sure
that should be called "leaking". :-)
I do notice that we probably can't easily solve this using the existing
closure machinery ("cells") because if we were to have cells in the class
dict, it would confuse everything else that looks in the class namespace.
