Incorrect output due to Tier 2 _LOAD_CONST_INLINE #117051

Bug report

I've constructed a sneaky way to break the remove_globals() optimization, by executing a code object in two different globals dicts. (Credit goes to @brandtbucher who started the conversation about this topic, though this particular example is mine.)

Take this code:

src="""def f(): global x def inner(i): a = 1 for _ in range(100): a = x + i return a return innerfunc = f()"""co=compile(src, __file__, "exec")
ns1= {"x": 1000}
eval(co, ns1)
func1=ns1["func"]
foriinrange(1000):
x=func1(i)
print(x)
ns2= {"x": 2000}
eval(co, ns2)
func2=ns2["func"]
foriinrange(1000):
x=func2(i)
print(x)

This should print

1999
2999

(try it with Python 3.12, or Python 3.13 without JIT or -Xuops).

However with current main (EDIT: when using JIT or -Xuops) it prints

1999
1999

:-(
