[New-bugs-announce] [issue28076] Variable annotations should be mangled for private names

[Ivan Levkivskyi]

New submission from Ivan Levkivskyi:

Variable annotations for private names are stored in __annotations__ without name mangling. This is inconsistent with how function annotations behave:

class C:
   def meth(__x: int): ...

assert C.meth.__annotations__ == {'_C__x': int}

The attached patch fixes variable annotations to behave in the same way:

class C:
    __foo: int = 1

assert C.__dict__['_C_foo'] == 1
assert C.__annotations__['_C__foo'] == int
