You don't know that, an implementation may for example set __bultins__
to None, prior to returning, its not an unreasonable thing to do and
the docs don't say they can't.
Actually, I think it is unreasonable -- by modifying the globals or
locals objects *after* the code has been exec'd, information is being
removed about the environment the code ran in, making introspection (if
nothing else) more difficult.
Good reasons are required to make life difficult (at least with Python).
