FWIW, after doing that I can not replicate the problem I was having,
namely that after putting a breakpoint in the outer function (foo) and
flagging the inner function (bar) for debugging I get neither a
breakpoint on the outer function nor debugging on the inner one.
I also tried with foo and bar in the global namespace, and that also
worked fine.
So still no toy examples of the problem.
