FWIW I can reproduce the problem with IDLE and tk_scroll.py:

1) Add a spanish keyboard layout in System Preferences (my normal layout is US International, matching the text on the keyboard)

2) Select this keyboard using the keyboard menu item

3) Type CMD-^ by pressing "CMD+SHIFT+[" (that is, at the same time press the keys CMD, SHIFT and the key where [ is on the keycap). 

With tk_scroll.py the following output is shown in the terminal:

I haven't (and won't) further investigated this problem, but at least this should help reproduce the problem.  Its likely a Tk problem, but maybe it is possible to tweak IDLE or Tkinter to avoid a crash. 

P.S. The crash does not happen with a US keyboard layout. 

P.P.S. SHIFT+[ appears to be how you enter "^" on a spanish keyboard.
