In #36429, the 'else' branch that did not work was deleted.

The reason __import__ is discouraged is the reason for the repetition of 'run', in the line kept, as explained above.  However, since the line works, it is not a bug, and I now prefer to leave it alone.  If someone disables it, IDLE will not start.

del_exitf was added for Visual IDLE -- VIDLE (sp?)  Investigating whether it is still needed and possible deleting it is another issue.  So is deprecating starting with PyShell, or having pyshell as main running tests in a development setting.
