[issue34927] Tkinter-related segfault on macOS (regression between 3.7.0 and 3.7.1rc1)

[Ned Deily]

Ned Deily <nad at python.org> added the comment:

It appears that the segfault behavior *was* introduced by some change in the Tk 8.6 development snapshot I chose to use for the python.org macOS installer builds in 3.7.1rc1 and 3.6.7rc2.  For 3.7.1rc2 and 3.6.7rc2, I reverted back to using the standard Tk 8.6.8 release and the segfault seems to have gone away on the systems where I was able to reproduce it with rc1 - whether it segfaulted seems to be system dependent.  We'll probably wait for the official release of Tk 8.6.9 before trying to upgrade Tk again.  Let us know if the problem reappears.
