Psyco and debuggers can't generally coexist. WinPDB presently issues a warning about this, forcing the user to manually edit the code to get it to work with WinPDB, but it could do better:

- PyDev has recently chosen to stub-out Psyco, so code that uses Psyco can be debugged without modification.

- Many compiled language debuggers declare a variable that exists only when debugging is active. ("if WinPDB is not None: ...") While this would require users to changing their code, it is a one-time-only change.

One of the above, or a similar mechanism, should be implemented to permit WinPDB to debug Psyco code without requiring the user to manually edit it first.
