ppperry <maprea...@olum.org> added the comment:

The Pdb bug and the IDLE bug are unrelated to each other:

   Pdb fails because it is attempting to import the readline module every time 
its `trace_dispatch` is called, and the import implementation is not reentrant 
in that way.

   IDLE is crashing because the uninitialized _ModuleLock instance raised an 
error when `repr` is called, and the IDLE debugger lacks code to catch that 
exception.
