Summary: ScrolledText hungs up in some conditions

Initial Comment:
The next code causes Python to hung in some 
conditions :

#------------------------------------------------------
from ScrolledText import * 

root=Tk() 
ScrolledText(root, bg='white').pack(fill=BOTH, 
expand=YES) 
root.mainloop() 
#------------------------------------------------------

Run the script. Pass focus to the text field. Then 
enter one Tab and type several letters. After that 
with having pushed Ctrl-key press several times UP 
button. Script hungs with 100% CPU-usage.

P.S. My config : WinXP sp2, python 2.4.2

I could verify this bug. My configuration is quite different:

Python 2.4.2 (#1, Oct 17 2005, 09:05:20)
[GCC 3.3.6 (Gentoo 3.3.6, ssp-3.3.6-1.0, pie-8.7.8)] on linux2
