It would be better to use the callback function that is passed to 
threading.settrace than to add QThread.settrace.  It's available as 
threading._trace_hook  The sys.settrace function should be called on the 
new thread before any Python code on that thread.

The ugly hack that Wing's debugger uses is to wrap to run method of a 
QThread instance that sets up the debugger for the thread and then calls 
the original run method.
