pdb should check if the executing file is modified and warn users #111051
Description
Feature or enhancement
Proposal:
It's possible that the file is modified during debugging, which would definitely confuse users - the source will not match the execution anymore.
There's no perfect solution under such circunstances, but we should at least warn users that this is happening.
Has this already been discussed elsewhere?
This is a minor feature, which does not need previous discussion elsewhere

I often have an issue with the test for this when running on a RAM disk formatted with HFS+. That file system only has 1-second mtime resolution, so the test often doesn't register an mtime change and intermittently fails. Fix incoming.
