Got it --- this bug has been there awhile :-(, ever since we had the
pull-up-subquery logic, which was in 7.1 IIRC. The pullup code
neglected to adjust references to uplevel Vars. Surprising that no one
reported this sooner.
The attached patch is against CVS tip. It will not apply cleanly to
7.2 because pull_up_subqueries() has been modified since then, but if
anyone's desperate for a fix in 7.2 it could probably be adapted.
