I had a look at the source code: the test itself did not change between 
8.6.7 and 8.6.8, nor tkTextTag.c . Besides, I don't see which other 
change could make the tags behavior wrong in 8.6.7 if they were OK for 
you in 8.6.7, which you already confirmed).

I have just run the Tk tests again again and for me this test stubbornly 
refuses to fail, unless I fiddle with the mouse while the tests are 
running.I can only make it fail by moving the mouse inside the windows 
that open during the test, for instance I can get:


==== textTag-18.1 TkTextPickCurrent tag bindings FAILED

<...snip...>

---- Result was:
Enter {25 25 tag-Enter} {20 20 tag-Leave} {23 24 tag-Enter} {20 20 
tag-Leave} {25 25 tag-Enter}
---- Result should have been (exact matching):
Enter {25 25 tag-Enter} {20 20 tag-Leave} {25 25 tag-Enter}
==== textTag-18.1 FAILED


But, again, if the mouse is not over the window that opens during the 
tests I can get no satisfaction^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hfailure.

Can you try this on your side: start the tests from a location (icon, 
script...) in your screen that has no intersection with the test window 
that it opens during the test: doestextTag-18.1 fail?

If that's the cause (i.e. if it fails because your mouse is still at a 
"wrong" location after you started the tests, then it means two things:

1. It certainly already failed in prevous releases

2. I should look at ruggedization of this test
