Ah yes, I see what you mean:

class Test():
        x = 1
        print (x)                         # Prints 1
        print([x+i for i in range(1,3)])  # NameError (x)

Anyway, I  apologise for posting to Python-Dev on was a known issue, and 
turned out to be more me asking for help with development with Python, 
rather than development of Python.  (My original use case was a 
scripting language that could contain embedded Python code).  Thanks to 
Nick for his original answer.
