No, it's the TclAqua thing I think: tkinter.so: /Library/Frameworks/Tcl.framework/Versions/8.4/Tcl (compatibility version 8.4.0, current version 8.4.0) /Library/Frameworks/Tk.framework/Versions/8.4/Tk (compatibility version 8.4.0, current version 8.4.0) /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 63.0.0) Michael> Even so, it's hard to see how it could be interfering.

I was encouraged that Bob's box didn't fail. How is your tkinter.so linked?

It's not, I don't have one :-) test_tcl skips on my system.
