I'm closing this now. We have a number of bug report for
this, and a proposed solution in the IDLEfork project:

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=508973&group_id=9579&atid=309579

Also note that in CVS we've got a patch that at least
prevents overwriting the file with empty contents when this
happens.
