Thanks for confirming that it is not just my system!

I'm pretty sure that it the problem is in Tk rather than Python/Tkinter , as I can do Entrywidget.cget('txt') and get the right string back, and can even cut and paste from the Entry widget to other apps and still get the original Unicode back ( well, UTF-8, but it is still correct). Looks like I will have to go spelunking in TK to find the cause - anyone have suggestions about where to start?

First ask on the mailing list for Mac Tcl/Tk developers, <tcl-mac at lists.sourceforge.net>. It may be a known problem. And they're friendly to Python/Tkinter users over there, too:-)
