here are the only two instances i can find of it occurring. i found another from '99 recently i think but i can't find it today. these are both win32 boxes.

this ones segafults with the same err on undo's [pd-0.35-19]:

this one when user attempts to close the patch [pd-0.36-9:

<http://iem.kug.ac.at/mailinglists/pd-list/2002-04/0510.html>

i don't know if tcl/tk8.4 was around april 2002.. so it may be case of pd compiling on tcl/tk a version ahead of itself from time to time, and this causes the glist_findrtext err.

something to keep an eye out for. tk8.4-dev [which provides the vital tk.h] conflicts with previous tcl/tk version headers and so will remove them. debian's package management system likes to impress with the latest versions, and so this one may bite a few ppl [especially on debian sid]..
