I verified that 'argv' (bound to sys.argv)  appears for all three versions after running an editor file, but not when Shell is started normally, without a file.

The immediate culprit is the runcommand code in runscript, lines 156-168.  As part of the patch to allow additions to sys.argv, temporary name 'argv' was added but not deleted at the end.  I missed this when I reviewed the patch.  So this bug only affected 3.7.4 and 3.8.0b2 to 3.8.0b4. The immediate fix is trivial.

The deeper problem is running internal IDLE code in the user namespace.  I believe that this is not necessary and opened #38078 to test and fix.
