Problem with += (augmented assignment)

Hi folks!
I tried this under Python 2.0 running on Win 2k:
x = 0
while x <= 42:
x += 1
Python always complains a Syntax Error: Invalid Syntax on this:
x += 1
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
Augmented assignment only seems to work when used in first indentation
level (script level). Otherwise, I always get that syntax error, it
does not matter whether I am using if, while or whatever.
Is there something terribly wrong with the += operator or is that all
my fault?
Help appreciated.
