It happens outside iPython:

Python 3.4.3 (default, Oct 14 2015, 20:28:29) 
[GCC 4.8.4] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import io, tokenize
>>> tokenize.untokenize(tokenize.tokenize(io.BytesIO('if x:\n
>>> y'.encode()).readline)).decode()
'if x:\ny\\\n'


and also in Python 2:

Python 2.7.6 (default, Mar 22 2014, 22:59:56) 
[GCC 4.8.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import io, tokenize
>>> tokenize.untokenize(tokenize.generate_tokens(io.BytesIO('if x:\n
>>> y').readline))
'if x:\ny\\\n'

Is this behaviour actually a bug, as opposed to a feature I don't understand?

Re: Getting globals of the caller, not the defining module

How about this?

# module A.py
import inspect
def spam():
return inspect.stack()[1][0].f_globals

# module B.py
import A
print(A.spam() is globals()) # prints True
def f():
return A.spam()

# module C.py
import B
print(B.f() is vars(B)) # prints True

I don't really know what I'm doing but I guess it won't work in alternative 
implementations of Python.
