Fair enough. I've just found this as well, which implies that lambda
isn't being killed off in 3.0:

In particular:

Why does the function have to be unnamed? you can easly nest function
definitions and refer to them. IIRC the lambda form is probably going
to be removed at some point, as it is not needed:
def outerfn():
dostuff()
def inner(x,y):
out = (x^y)
print out
return out
To expand on the above, Python does not have statements in its lambda
forms, but that does not stop pythoneers from getting the job done.
I use a named function for that, but if you have an issue with that, it
really is worth following Terry's advice as the subject has been
tackled at great length
