I don't understand what you are doing, so I tried to reproduce the 
unqualified class name in 3.4 with the simpler approach of returning T:

Python 3.4.0 (default, Apr 11 2014, 13:05:11) 
[GCC 4.8.2] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> def test():
...     class T:
...         def method(self): pass
...     return T
... 
>>> T = test()
>>> T.__qualname__
'test.<locals>.T'
>>> T.method.__qualname__
'test.<locals>.T.method'

If you do it that way with 3.3 (I don't have it handy) do you still see
T instead of test.<locals>.T?
