Here's a more self-contained example:

;;;  -*- lexical-binding: t -*-

(defvar foo 1)

(defun zot ()
  (pcase-let ((`(,foo) '(2)))
    (bar)))

(defun bar ()
  (message "%s" foo))

M-: (zot) messages "2".

If pcase-let currently does work fine for dynamic variables then it's
likely that people are depending on it, and it's too late to change...
