does anyone see anything wrong with the update syntax?

def utility_change_column_name(): #used once in a while by programmer. Not 
used by users.
    for r in db.PostalCode:
        db(db.PostalCode).update(r.countryCode = r.countryCodeFromGeoNames)
    return dict()

am getting 
<type 'exceptions.SyntaxError'> keyword can't be an expression

  File "C:\alex\alt_web2py\web2py\gluon\restricted.py", line 209, in compile2
    return compile(code.rstrip().replace('\r\n', '\n') + '\n', layer, 'exec')
