[issue13926] IDLE closes when requesting a list of available modules in the online help utility

[Jeroen]

New submission from Jeroen <dariojee at gmail.com>:

When using IDLE (2.7.2) in Ubuntu 11.10 the following error occurs:

When the online help utility in IDLE is started (by entering the help()
commando), it should be possible to get a list of all available modules by
typing "modules". When I do so a message is shown that the list will be
created, but after a few seconds the list isn't shown but IDLE is closed
instead.

Python version: Python 2.7.2+ (default, Oct  4 2011, 20:06:09) [GCC 4.6.1]
on linux2
Tk version: 8.5
IDLE version: 2.7.2
