[issue19366] Segfault in REPL due to escaped tab.

[George King]

New submission from George King:

I can crash python2.7.5 python3.3.2 from the REPL consistently:

$ python3
Python 3.3.2 (v3.3.2:d047928ae3f6, May 13 2013, 13:52:24) 
[GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5666) (dot 3)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> s = '\\t'
>>> s
Segmentation fault: 11
$ 

the same goes for:
Python 2.7.5 (v2.7.5:ab05e7dd2788, May 13 2013, 13:18:45) 
[GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5666) (dot 3)] on darwin

both of these python builds are the mac binaries from python.org.
