Summary: Mouse wheel crashes program

Initial Comment:
The following program (by Michael Peuser)  crashes as 
soon as the mouse wheel is moved. See my post to 
c.l.p. on Oct 29.

I wasn't able to reproduce this in pure Tcl/Tk (under Wish). No surprise 
there. In wish, I used this:

toplevel .top
bind .top <MouseWheel> {puts 'foo'}

And mouse wheeling in the Toplevel widget made a bunch of 'foo's appear in 
the wish console without crashing.

HTH.

Me too. Python 2.3.4 with Tcl/Tk 8.4.9. Crash on Scroll Wheeling in WinXP 
SP 1. (users report it happening in SP 2 also).

I'll try to make this happen in pure Tcl/Tk rather than Tkinter too.

I can reproduce this bug.  I am running Python 2.3.4 on
WinXP SP2.

tk84.dll is version 8.4.3; tcl84.dll is also 8.4.3.

The mousewheel works correctly with a Tkinter.Text object
with no additional bindings.

Happens for me too, on Win2K with python 2.3.2. The fault is
in TCL84.DLL at an offset of 1002a58c, if that means
anything to anyone.
