Alex Martelli identified a problem on a particular
machine which was unable to start IDLE's
subprocess if not connected to the Internet.

The user was not receiving any error message.

This patch raises a Tk error box and also adds
a timeout to the listening socket so that a stuck
process is not left behind.

See discussion on Python-dev 26July03.

Postponing until 2.3.1.  Too much code change before 2.3
final.  Assigning to Aahz so he can add appropriate text to
pydotorg's 2.3/bugs.ht file.  We'll call this a known bug in
2.3 to be fixed in 2.3.1.

Also, lowering the priority.  Aahz, once you've made the
change to bugs.ht, please re-assign to Kurt.
