Ah, I looked at 1.8.8p5 quite some time back, and I think I somehow convinced myself that it was all just patches we were already carrying which got upstreamed (and a bunch of doc changes) - but there are a couple of extra ones in there which are significant for this. Thanks for testing that, there's a package on its way to incoming which should let you proceed with dropping tk 8.5. Cheers, Ron
