Thank you for the report, Xavier.

This is a duplicate of issue 22057.

PR 8812 clarifies the behavior when a dictionary without a "__builtins__" key is passed as *globals* to eval(). I think that makes the opposite case much easier to understand.

>>> eval("print(spam)", {'__builtins__': {'spam': 'eggs'}})
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
NameError: name 'print' is not defined

>>> eval("print(spam)", {'__builtins__': {'spam': 'eggs', 'print': print}})
eggs

Also, I never needed to pass a dictionary with a "__builtins__" key to eval() before, so I don't think it's an important detail to document.
