Thanks for the "interact" tip.
FWIW, I see this issue in 2.7.10 as well. Although the list comprehension
works.

Thanks for the report. This seems related to issue21161 and issue26072 that
contain explanation about scope where exec is called with the code and patches
that fix this issue. As a possible workaround in the issues you can use
"interact" command
New submission from Jayanth Raman :
I get a NameError for a variable in the generator param of a function or in a
list comprehension. See example below. The variable is available to the
program, but not to the interactive Pdb shell.
# Test file:
def main(nn=10):
xx = list(range(nn))
