My fault -- I was working on adding an idle event handler across backends and implemented something using threads for tkagg and haven't solved the problem of cross thread signal handling. I've commented out the functionality for now until I get it fixed (svn r5655). But yes, Nils, at a minimum, the OS, backend, and svn revision number need to be included in bug reports.
