Willem, the rationale for this PEP is to give alternative

I don't know how mature or active it is, so it may not count as either
major or complete, but there's also CLPython:

CLPython is in steady development, quite complete and stable

This seems like a good idea.

Function g violates the current limitation that generators can't

The issue came up while trying to get some Sympy code running on CLPython.

1. Is it guaranteed that class C gets an attribute a, i.e. that the
locals printed include {'a': 3}?
2. It it (also) guaranteed if it were in a function scope?

Of course attribute name lookups are affected, because you can have a
