[Python-Dev] Tkinter script crashes Python 3.1

2009-10-16 Thread Gregor Lingl
I've written a small Tkinter-Script, that crashes Python 3.1 (but not Python 2.6) without any specific rrror message. When started from within IDLE, the failing of the script also closes IDLE. (This is the case under Windows, Mac OS X and Linux (teted with Ubuntu 9.04)) Bug-Tracker Issue 6717
