I added a note to the bug report, which was correct. The fix was already made in the Tcl head, but I back-ported it to the 8.3-branch of Tcl for those who want to be able to grab that and work against it.

FYI, someone just added a new entry to the ancient Python "Programs using Tkinter sometimes can't shut down (Windows)" bug report that everyone gave up on. John Popplewell claims to have found the (a?) cause, in part: """ Managed to track it down to a problem inside Tcl. For the Tcl8.3.4 source distribution the problem is in the file win/tclWinNotify.c """ Beats me, but a claim so specific is probably worth checking out: <http://sf.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=216289&groupid=5470>
