Comment:

 Verified the correct error message (`NameError: name 'a' is not defined`)
 turns up under Python 3.5.7, so I guess it is a non-issue overall (fwiw, I
 was verifying under 3.6.2, if Mariusz couldn't reproduce under 3.6.3, it
 got "fixed" upstream in that version).

 (I would argue that the **ergonomics** of Django are harmed by not fixing
 this because it works in the officially-supported point releases, because
 it is more likely to mask problems affecting new users, who are learning
 Django but don't necessarily know the ecosystem well enough to
 install/maintain their own version (eg: by using system python, or
 whatever))
