Research direction

Start by compiling the Python example from the issue and compare the generated JavaScript with the reported output. Trace the compiler's export handling for identifiers declared inside an if clause. Done means the generated declaration receives the expected export treatment and the behavior is covered by a regression test.

Description

STATE: under consideration 
exported = 1
if exported:
    non_exported = 1

results in:

export var exported = 1;
if (exported) {
    var non_exported = 1;
}

note absence of export before var non_exported
