I assume that this is a dirty fix, yet it works for me. Please let me know what is the good way to fix the issue, I would like to tackle it. How to reproduce is described here.

This seems like the wrong fix. If the debugger is already running then further breakpoints should just break the debugger. If that doesn't happen we should try to investigate why. Having multiple debugger classes implies recursive debugging, which sounds really complicated and probably not worth supporting.
