[Dojo-interest] accessing global variables inside a callback

[hmg]

1) Your problem is that you are ignoring the assynchronicity of the deferred
- callback setting the variable will only be set after the deferred triggers
but the alert happens before you give a chance for that to happen (the
deferred can only trigger when your code stops running, after that alert)

If you wait for the deferred to trigger you can check that the variable
should be set as expected.

2) addCallback is old-style deferreds. Are you sure you can't use ".then"
instead?
