New submission from Ned Deily:
Using current IDLE in 2.7 tip (as in 2.7.6rc1), selecting a file to open in the IDLE menu or on the command line cause IDLE to either (depending on the platform and invocation) crash or hang due to an uncaught exception in idlelib/IOBinding.py:
/usr/local/bin/idle2.7 a.py
Exception in Tkinter callback
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/lib-tk/Tkinter.py", line 1470, in __call__
return self.func(*args)

The culprit is 3d46ef0c62c5 for Issue18873 which did a faulty backport of a change from the 3.x branches.
