Following your test case, I am able to produce a deadlocked IDLE when using the 
python.org 3.1.2 OS X installer on 10.5.8 when using just the Apple-supplied Tk 
8.4 framework.  After installing a recent ActiveState Tcl/Tk 8.4 framework (the 
python.org installers are built to dynamically link with either), the hang is 
no longer reproducible.  There doesn't seem to be a problem with either 2.6.6 
or 2.7, with either version of Tcl/Tk, nor is there on 10.6 but the 
Apple-supplied 8.4 there is much newer than that in 10.5. I'm doing some more 
triage work on this issue with 3.1 and 3.2.

In the interim, a workaround may be to install the ActiveState Tcl/Tk 8.4 on 
your systems if that is acceptable.
