Oh, I wouldn't say that. Changing an API that's been stable for 20

correct way to think about this is not "Apple broke Tk", it is

Tk is the first to be reported".
X.org made the change, Apple just moved to the latest version of X.org
which contained this issue. Given this I'm willing to give Apple (i.e.
