+"""Faux ``threading`` version using ``dummy_thread`` instead of ``thread``.

+The module ``_dummy_threading`` is added to ``sys.modules`` in order
+to not have ``threading`` considered imported.  Had ``threading`` been
+directly imported it would have made all subsequent imports succeed
+regardless of whether ``_thread`` was available which is not desired.
