You are correct, this is the expected behavior. Name mangling happens only at compilation time (see http://docs.python.org/reference/expressions.html#atom-identifiers). A doc note for get/setattr would probably be useful. (I removed 3.3; that version doesn't exist yet and should only be set on issues that can only be dealt with in 3.3, such as removing something deprecated in 3.2.)
