Christian,

When I wrote this, my intention was like: cur & DEFLOCAL is a "more serious" error, so that if both errors are made in the same statement: def f(): x: int = 5 global x "SyntaxError: global after assignment" will be reported. The same logic applies to nonlocal.

Hi Ivan,

thanks for your explanation. The code looks suspicious. Can you please provide a patch that makes it more obvious, e.g. either by using if / else if / else or a comment?

Christian
