Summary: TclError with intel's hypertheading

Initial Comment:
If i use the "intel hyperthreading technologie", my
python application make a coredump with the output:

  File "C:\PROGRA~2\PYTHON~2\lib\lib-tk\Tkinter.py",
line 472, in after
    return self.tk.call('after', ms, name)
TclError: expected integer but got "9118984callit"

The test runs at the following system.
Microsoft windows 2000 5.00.2195 Service Pack 4
Intel Pentium 4 CPU 2.5 Ghz
522.988 KB RAM.


The error never occur, if i turn the hyperthreading in
the bios off.
I made the self test at 2 other pc with the same
hardware and configurations.  The result was the same.

I made another test with a linux pc, a laptop with xp
and a laptop with win2000. All without hyperthreading.
The error has not occured.

I add the log file and the test as attachment.
