        # dummy_threading).  dummy_thread.get_ident() always returns -1 since
        # there is only one thread if dummy_thread is being used.  Thus
        # len(_active) is always <= 1 here, and any Thread instance created
        # overwrites the (if any) thread currently registered in _active.

        # An instance of _MainThread is always created by 'threading'.  This
        # gets overwritten the instant an instance of Thread is created; both
        # threads return -1 from dummy_thread.get_ident() and thus have the
        # same key in the dict.  So when the _MainThread instance created by
        # 'threading' tries to clean itself up when atexit calls this method
        # it gets a KeyError if another Thread instance was created.
        #
        # This all means that KeyError from trying to delete something from
        # _active if dummy_threading is being used is a red herring.  But

        # hide the exception.
