Use globals['name'].
There's no way to do it with regular name look ups. This doesn't work:
spam = 'outside'
def func():
spam = 'inside'
assert spam == 'inside'
global spam
assert spam == 'outside'
The problem is that global is a declaration, not an executable statement, and if
it is *anywhere* inside function, it is deemed to apply to the entire function.
Apart from that, you could try hacking the byte-code. It should be a matter of
just replacing LOAD_FAST with LOAD_GLOBAL, I think.
