You can't. The order that the locals are bound is not something
that's preserved.
There are frameworks that simulate this, but they actually just store
the order that the attributes are initialized:
class Test(FrameworkClass):
y = FrameworkObject(11)
x = FrameworkObject(22)
where FrameworkObject is assigned a number from an incrementing
counter on initialization, and FrameworkClass has a metaclass that
sorts those objects when the class is created.
