Thats not a violation ever anyway... A line can only be one thing and its the out of bounds line. So toe on base line/side line is never a violation, because the line is out of bounds.
Toe OVER the in line onto the court is a violation. Now you can choose to ignore that if you would like, but its still a violation.

Foot ON the line is a violation under FIBA rules. All lines are considered to be of zero thickness, and in practical terms are considered to be part of the area opposite to the one that the ball/player is in.
In other words, if a player is inbounding - then the line is part of the playing area, and therefor cannot be touched on a throwin.
However, if the player is dribbling the ball up the court and stands on (but not over) the line, the line is OOB.
Confused? It is actually pretty easy to officiate with this rule.
