Build #200 (revision 6abbc5f68e20eb01094dbbcf486c2ba0e1e4fa77) of "AMD64 Snow Leopard 2 2.7" crashed:

test_ttk_guionly
make: *** [buildbottest] Segmentation fault

http://www.python.org/dev/buildbot/all/builders/AMD64%20Snow%20Leopard%202%202.7/builds/200/

runtktests.check_tk_availability() creates a Tkinter.Button() in a subprocess. It should maybe try to create a ttk.Button() for test_ttk_guionly instead of Tkinter.Button().
