The above would produce a NameError, not an UnboundLocalError:
>>> def foo():
... global x
... x = x
...
>>> foo()
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "<stdin>", line 3, in foo
NameError: global name 'x' is not defined
To get the latter you'd have to omit the global declaration.
