Logs a message with level *level* on the root logger. The other arguments are
interpreted as for :func:`debug`.
.. note:: The above module-level functions which delegate to the root
logger should *not* be used in threads, in versions of Python earlier
than 2.7.1 and 3.2, unless at least one handler has been added to the
root logger *before* the threads are started. These convenience functions
call :func:`basicConfig` to ensure that at least one handler is
available; in earlier versions of Python, this can (under rare
circumstances) lead to handlers being added multiple times to the root
logger, which can in turn lead to multiple messages for the same event.
