[issue10973] OS X 10.6 IDLE, tkinter: Cocoa Tk 8.5 crash when composite character typed in text field

Hmm.  It seems better to me to accept this bug (and document it, and point out that it isn't Python's fault) than depriving 64-bit users of IDLE, or (even worse) of tkinter.

If you can manage a solution that doesn't remove IDLE, I'm in favor, but otherwise option 1. is my favorite.  I trust there is no possibility of a workaround from the Python or _tkinter side of things?
