Details:

Possibly similar to bug #56860.

If I create a class definition type m-file, it appears to be impossible to
toggle a breakpoint anywhere. See attached test case. Way to use this file:
>> clear all
>> addpath(pwd) %not sure if this is required for other OS.
>> [cat error] = Recipe.call_recipe('load_categories');

Toggling the breakpoint results in the following errors:
>> error: add_breakpoint: unable to find function 'Recipe'
error: parse error

Note: this is very difficult to work around, as such classdef file can become
huge, with many functions and difficult to debug without breakpoints.
