Look at the dump file I attached to the Tk issue.  It has a complete

I've been stepping through the IDLE source code and it appears IDLE is crashing during the LoadConfigs() call of the config dialog. Still have more investigating to do, but I'm hopeful I can come up with a workaround that will keep things from crashing.

The stack trace that I posted earlier, in my own testing, indicates that the issue may be during the infernal event loop integration between Tk and Cocoa--there's been a lot of traffic on the Mac-Tcl list about that. Fortunately, while the low-level event loop issues are more or less unavoidable at this time, they can often be worked around at the script level with calls to update, after idle, etc. It may take some trial and error here to get that working.
If I'm successful, where should I submit a patch?
