CakePHP 1.3 helper and variable name collision.

I thought in CakePHP 1.3 the issue with helpers and variables
colliding had been resolved. However, in the below view code the
gettype function outside of the loop references the ArtistHelper
correctly (returns "object"), and inside refers to the $artist
variable (returns "array").

<?php
echo gettype($this->Artist);
foreach($artists as $artist) {
echo gettype($this->Artist);
$url = $this->Artist->url($artist['Artist']['slug']);
}
?>

I would rather avoid a different name for the variable, as "artist" is
the most descriptive name. Has this not been resolved, or am I doing
something wrong?
