My initial description was imprecise. Clearification: The fact that in
 #!/usr/bin/python
 import threading
 def debugging():
 def __a_thread__():
 print("2")
 a_thread = threading.Thread(target=__a_thread__)
 print("1")
 if __name__ == "__main__":
 debugging()
when invoked with `python -m pdb` the breakpoint at line 7 is ignored, like in
 $ python -m pdb multithreaded_debugging.py 
 > /mnt/DATA/richter/examples/python/multithreaded_debugging/multithreaded_debugging.py(3)<module>()
 -> import threading
 (Pdb) break 7
 Breakpoint 1 at /mnt/DATA/richter/examples/python/multithreaded_debugging/multithreaded_debugging.py:7
 (Pdb) c
 1
 The program finished and will be restarted
