It's even worse than that, because adding 'nonlocal' is not a bugfix.
So to be committed to the repo, it has to be approved for either 2.7
branch (which is in bugfix-only maintenance mode) or 2.8 branch (which
does not exist). Good luck. :)

fixing badly named variables is not a bug fix either, but that has happened in
python 2.7. A micro change release changed
compiler.consts.SC_GLOBAL_EXPLICT
to
compiler.consts.SC_GLOBAL_EXPLICIT
this is a change of api for the consts module (if you regard exported variables
as part of its api), but that didn't count for the developers.
