What really matters for function is when they're executed, not defined (except for their parameter default value).

foo = 'I am foo'
bar = 'I am bar'

def funcA(param1=foo):
    print param1
    print bar

foo = 'I am another foo'
bar = 'I am another bar'

def funcB(param1=foo):
    print param1
    print bar
    
funcA()
funcB()

   


I am foo
I am another bar
I am another foo
I am another bar


cheers,
