Well, I've been playing around with it a bit, but as you say there
seem to be a lot of changes necessary in Tkinter.py and I haven't
found the time yet to adapt Tkinter in a systematic way. There's one
necessary fix to tkintermodule.c: the body of Tkinter_Cleanup should
be commented out, else you get a core dump when Python exits.
