Given the large number of Python users familiar with SQL compared to those familiar with Haskell, I think we'd do wise to pick a different keyword instead of 'where'. I can't think of one right now though. <http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-ideas>
Taking a cue from mathematics, how about "given"?
c = sqrt(aa + bb) given: a = retrieve_a() b = retrieve_b()
