Here's the simplest example I could come up with -- hit this while debugging pytest (which uses attrs which uses similar code to this to make classes)

import pdb; pdb.Pdb(skip=['django.*']).set_trace()
eval(compile("1", "", "exec"), {})
print('ok!')


When running this:

$ python3.8 t.py
> /home/asottile/workspace/setup-cfg-fmt/t.py(2)<module>()
-> eval(compile("1", "", "exec"), {})
(Pdb) n
Traceback (most recent call last):
