Your call.  I don't really know much about PDB either.  In fact, 
all I ever do with it is hit "s" (step), "r" (return), "n" (next),
and sometimes I evaluate an expression with "!expr".

I also use it to troubleshoot problems in multithreaded code
from time to time, as I recall, never with any particular problem.
I'm surprised more people don't use it because it's really rather
trivial to fire up and step through a few lines of code.  Clunky?
Maybe... but it works, and it's very very convenient.
