I would suggest to make this
import dummy_thread as threading
i.e. have dummy_thread expose the union of the thread and threading
APIs.

That wont't work: "from threading import *" will raise an ImportError.
I suggest to add dummy_thread to sys.modules, then execfile
threading.py in dummy_thread, then remove it from sys.modules.
