...hmm: I guess the first question is where did you get the tcltk
8.4.9, or did you build it from the 8.4 cvs? I ask this because I've
had no problems with tot (8.5) or tot (8.4) cvs, but then I haven't
been building apps :-) So at least we know it isn't a fatal conflict
between 0.38-4 and 8.4.9...
