I was merely pointing out that running exec() with separate globals and
locals namespaces ends up invoking the same underlying machinery as is
used to execute a class definition.

For the docs suggestions, could you either email that to
docs at python.org, or else create a documentation issue at
bugs.python.org? (It will get lost otherwise)

Cheers,
Nick.
