[New-bugs-announce] [issue34961] Global scoping when shadowing local names in class definitions

[multun]

New submission from multun <victor.collod at prologin.org>:

Hello,

>>> a="global"
>>> def func(a):
...     class wtf():
...             a=a
...     return wtf
... 
>>> func("local").a
'global'
>>> def func2(a):
...     class wtf():
...             b=a
...     return wtf
... 
>>> func2("local").b
'local'


Is this behavior legit ?

Best regards,
