Another TkAqua bug, noticed while using TkChat. On most of the
dialog boxes which are displayed, any buttons which are added do
not display until some action is taking. For instance, in the dialog
which pops up to ask how much history to load, the radiobuttons
for the days appear, but the "OK" button does not. Clicking on one
of the radio buttons makes the OK button appear. An even worse
example is the About box, which should have a large "Dismiss"
button across the bottom, but this doesn't appear. As there are no
other controls on this dialog, the only way to get the button to
appear is to click in the area where it should be. It then appears,
but closes the window.
I have not currently been able to come up with a minimal script
which reproduces this behaviour, or indeed, reproduce it at all
outside of TkChat.

I've seen sporadic missing buttons in simple dialogs
with our wish app. on 8.4.1 on OSX. I believe it even
happens with tk_messageBox okcancel types but not 100%
sure. can't reproduce, it is sporadic. I can confirm same
behavior where if you click where button should be located,
it is invoked (and possibly appears too- I don't remember).
