That is exactly what it is, alas. If we allow lexicals to get injected in, 
we need to either do this (Basically having every non-package variable 
getting an entry in the scope's pad) or search backward. I don't much like 
either option, but I think this is the best of the lot.

So much for the "Extra braces don't carry any runtime penalty to speak of" 
speech in class... :)
