[issue21591] "exec(a, b, c)" not the same as "exec a in b, c" in nested functions

[Neil Muller]

Neil Muller added the comment:

Poking at the source of the error suggests the problem is in symtable.c:

The offending logic looks to be (around line 1124 in python 2.7 at revision 91767:4cef7b0ec659):

if (s->v.Exec.globals) {
   ...
}
else
{
   st->st_cur->ste_unoptimized |= OPT_BARE_EXEC;
}

since OPT_BARE_EXEC is the flag that triggers the exception.

As far as I can see, this makes no provision for the exec() case, and only avoids setting OPT_BARE_EXEC if globals is specified using the old syntax.
