Just some more mental twiddling relating to the thread on statement 
local namespaces.

I presume the point of this is to avoid polluting the local namespace 
with "newval". I further presume you also have plans to do something 
about "i"? ;-)
Well, while I'm not at all a fan of the "using" syntax, getting rid of 
'i' is simple:

z = list(newval(i) for i in range(10))
