Doug,

Would incorrect variable binding be such a more serious problem? The shared
variable binding/lookup logic is broken (seems it has been for 7 years or
so) and I corrected it for 3.5 last week. Yesterday I saw that in 3.6 the
mechanism has been overhauled, but sure enough the error is still there. If
you think this might be serious enough to warrant a new build, let me know
and I'll make it a priority to get you a change set that fixes this for the
3.6 mechanism.

BTW, the fix involves 3 methods in 3.5 and should be a similar small number
in 3.6.

Cheers,
