I don't think this is a bug. You're paraphrasing step 2 incorrectly. The local name-binding behavior just creates a local named "email" -- it doesn't concern itself with ensuring that the email package has an attribute "charset". That attribute is set as a side effect of *loading* the charset submodule, not as a side effect of every import statement.
