Caanot use 'dict' builtin in templates

[sqlalchemy-bot]

Migrated issue, originally created by Anonymous

In r375 there has been added a patch to allow the use of Python builtin names as template variables. I use the 'dict' builtin in several templates to make a dictionary, but with this patch the compiled template begins with the lines:

from mako import runtime, filters, cache
UNDEFINED = runtime.UNDEFINED
_magic_number = 2
...

def render_body(context,**pageargs):
context.caller_stack._push_frame()
try:
__M_locals = dict(pageargs=pageargs)
dict = context.get('dict', UNDEFINED)
...

(ellipsis omitting rest of code)

and, on render time, Python complains with an UnboundLocalError: "local variable 'dict' referenced before assignment" due to the use of dict in the _M_locals line (just before trying to pull from
the context).

Regards,

Raúl García
