Summary: Text search gives bad count if called from variable trace
Initial Comment:
If Text search is called from a variable trace then the count variable is
not be updated.
I see this with Python 2.4.3 and Aqua Tcl/Tk 8.4.11 on MacOS X 10.4.7.
I have not tested it elsewhere.
Note that this works fine in tcl/tk so this appears to be a Tkinter issue.
To see the problem run the attached python script.
(The script also includes the equivalent tcl/tk code in its comments, so
you can easily test the issue directly in tcl/tk if desired.)

Same behaviour on Linux and current Python trunk.
In addition I get an IndexError, if I delete the
last character of the search string.
Does Tk allow calling search with an empty pattern?
Tkinter could handle this (with a correct result)
with the following change in Tkinter.py / Text.search():
if pattern[0] == '-': args.append('--')
->
if pattern and pattern[0] == '-': args.append('--')
Greetings,
Matthias Kievernagel
