I have the Info.plist file in the Contents directory to only contain my information and the name of the application in the About... menu is correct; however, clicking on this menu reveals an About window for Tcl/Tk itself.  If I grep for one of the strings in the Tcl/Tk About window, the only files containing a match are the wish and tclsh executables.

I've found that I just had to listen for the About menu item name with 
using menu.add_command(label=aboutMenuLabel, ...)
where aboutMenuLabel is of the form "About <appName>"

This is different than other Mac-specific menu items such as 
Preferences, Help and Quit, all of which use this form:
root.createcommand("::tk::mac::ShowPreferences", func).
