Hi! I just commited a bugfix in Tcl core-8-4-branch which fixes subtle but fatal memory bug. It is not easy to reproduce but it happens (what would I do w/o Purify?)...
If you need more stability, checkout the core-8-4-branch and recompile the Tcl lib. The bug was in the Tcl_FSGetInternalRep where a freed pointer has been overwritten. Cheers Zoran
