On Win 10 in 3.11.4, 3.12.0b1, and main compiled yesterday, there is a regression in that help() crashes.
In 3.10.11, 3.9.13, 3.8.10, there is no traceback. The exception is caught, the message printed, the short instructions printed, as above, and the help prompt given again.
This somehow messes up IDLE calltips, #105689, but I am treating that as a separate issue, though a diagnosis there as to whether the post-crash IDLE problem is in IDLE itself or somewhere else might give a hint here.
