What I really want to do is:

Add a global statement to rebind a global name:
global logger
But I see that that is not what you want to do, which is to override the
global name just within the function while still accessing the global
name. MRAB's solution does that nicely.
logger = logger.getChild('function')
logger.debug('stuff')
logger.debug('other stuff')
which lets me not have to change any lines of code other than inserting
the one to redefine logger. Unfortunately, that's not legal Python (it
leads to "UnboundLocalError: local variable 'logger' referenced before
assignment").
Any ideas on the best way to implement this?
