[issue26237] UnboundLocalError error while handling exception

[Марк Коренберг]

New submission from Марк Коренберг:

This works right in Python 2.7, but fails in python3:

UnboundLocalError: local variable 'e' referenced before assignment


def test():
    try:
        raise Exception('a')
    except Exception as e:
        pass
    else:
        return
    print(e)

test()
