[issue5707] IDLE will not load

[GUO, Chen]

GUO, Chen <gcd0318 at hotmail.com> added the comment:

Modification to "customer key set" would make IDLE fail to start

To re-produce:
1, Start IDLE, and switch to Preference -> Keys;
2, Make modification to the key binding;
3, Click Apply, then click OK
4, repeat above steps.
The 2nd time to click OK would not get any response.
But this is not the nightmare. Now quit IDLE and restart IDLE. But IDLE 
cannot restart.

I believe that issue5707 is still exist in Ver. 3.1.1 for Mac OS X.

OS: Mac OS X 10.6.1
Python version: 3.1.1

The error message from console of Mac OS X is attached as following:
