Hi,
issue991196 was closed being described as intentional. I've added a comment in that issue which argues that this is a serious bug (also aserted by a previous commenter - Armin Rigo), because it creates a unique, undocumented, oddly behaving scope that doesn't apply closures correctly. At the very least I think this should be acknowledged as a plain old bug (rather than a feature), and then a discussion about whether it will be fixed or not. Appreciate your thoughts - cheers,
Colin
