Log Message:
dummy_threading when run with -O would raise a KeyError in Thread.__delete()
when called by atexit thanks to dummy_thread always returning -1 for
dummy_thread.get_ident().  Since exception was not an issue, it is now caught
and tossed.

Closes bug #993394.

+ - Bug #993394.  A KeyError was being raised by Thread.__delete() for
+   dummy_threading when called by atexit if an instance of Thread was created in
+   an interpreter running in -O.  The exception was of no importance and thus is
+   now thrown away if raised.
+ 
  - Bug #930024: posixpath.realpath() now detects loops from symlinks and returns
    the longest path before the loop begins.
