I'll make sure that we have an ActiveTcl release updated with this patch 
prior to Feb 12.  Note that we are using the 8.5-decarbon branch created 
by Daniel Steffen, which is not the "official" 8.5 source branch (that 
one still has the carbon sources).  Thus, no need for an official 8.5 
release related to this, and I suspect most people aren't using Tkinter 
and 8.6 at this time.
