On a second thought, I do have another question:
```js
export var a = 1;
a++;
```
I believe the exported value is 2?
```js
var a = 1;
export default a;
a++;
```
And this is 1?
```js
var a = 1;
export { a };
a++;
```
(Not sure about this one, looks like 1)
So the question is, there is no way to bind variables with the “export default”
syntax, when it is used to export an object?
```js
export default function a() {}
a = 2;
```
(This should be 2, right?)
