Write a context manager.
Then you just do
with MyLDAPWrapper() as ldap
ldap.this()
ldap.that()
and when you leave the scope of the with statement, your ldap __exit__
method will get called regardless of how you left.

That does seem to explain it. The inner loop doesn't have access to the
class's name space, and of course you can't fix it by referencing Foo.y

Ultimately, we realized that the dict should be created in the __init__
method, so t

Assuming you have:

lib/foo.py
lib/foo.c
Then:
from distutils.core import setup, Extension
setup(name="lib", packages=["lib"], ext_modules=[Extension("lib._foo",
