Summary: dict size changes during iter

Initial Comment:
In p3yk branch and Ubuntu 2.6.20-15

In::

  from Tkinter import *


  root = Tk()
  toplevel = Toplevel()
  def destroy():
      toplevel.destroy()
  button = Button(toplevel, text='Press Me',
                  command=destroy)
  button.pack()
  toplevel.focus_set()

  root.mainloop()

When the button is pressed I get::

  Exception in Tkinter callback
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/local/lib/python3.0/lib-tk/Tkinter.py", line 1403, in __call__
      return self.func(*args)
    File "mod.py", line 7, in destroy
      toplevel.destroy()
    File "/usr/local/lib/python3.0/lib-tk/Tkinter.py", line 1935, in destroy
      for c in self.children.values(): c.destroy()
  RuntimeError: dictionary changed size during iteration

The attached patch solves this.
