Python debugging quirks

Do you have a better suggestion?

It said:

There is no logfp in there.  (That's why I was editing it.)
I botched the edit.  The actual buggy code was self/logfp.write...

My claim is that the interpreter is doing the right thing and finds the local 
util.pyc but the debugger isn't following the same search rules and finds the 
wrong util.py

Or something like that.
