No, I only used __main__.py to make it easy to reproduce the problem.
Pdb will not be able to access code in any module with a custom
__loader__. For example, if you move f() to foo.py inside test.zip
and import it from __main__, you will see the same issue. My patch
gives linecache.getlines() called by Pdb access to module's globs and
thus to its __loader__ . It has nothing to do with runpy.

You must be thinking issue4197 where two distinct problems are
adressed: first, the crash due to __file__ set to None by runpy and
second, missing globs parameter to linecache.getlines() in doctest
module.
My patch, doctest-1.patch works around the first issue and fixes the second.
