Summary: Bug fix for pinstripe background--from Trebuchet developer

Initial Comment:
From the Trebuchet developer: 

 Focus rings for text widgets are often wrong.  I'll take a look and 
see if I can track this bug down later.

    Focus rings are implemented as a bit of a hack.  Carbon 
appears to refuse to tell me the true region shapes of the controls 
in question, so I had to fake it.  This means if apple changes the 
shape of their theme buttons at some point in the future, the focus 
rings will be incorrect.  I recently came across info on how to fix 
this so it's done the correct way, but it will take a lot of rework of 
the tkMacOSXButton.c and tkMacOSXMenuButton.c files.

    In canvas widgets, the pinstripe background gets offset from the 
correct pattern.  This is a subtle effect usually, but it appears hard 
to fix.

    The Application Preferences menu item will always be enabled, 
even if no preferences handler proc is defined.

    Dashed lines in canvases don't work when drawing with 
foreground color set to one of the theme background patterns.  You 
can do one or the other, but not both at the same time.
