To make things more fun, the TclTk included in the mac/stuff/ (which is the
version that most people will get when building the app themselves) is one that
crashed for me.
Side note: we should really update the prototypes for macOS and Windows
at one point. msw/pdprototype.tgz still contains Tcl/Tk 8.5...

I think min Tk version for macOS and tabs should be 8.6.10 or 11. We may
possible also need an os version check, hopefully not.
My code explicitly checks for TclTk<<8.6.12 (and >= 8.6), so I think I tested
and it crashed with 8.6.11.

Luckily, the version that is used for the app distributed by miller (and built
on the iem premises), is a newer one, that is known to work.
So most "users" should get a version that is good.
The main thing to avoid is if anyone runs an older Tk 8.6, especially the buggy
one that used to be included with macOS itself.
And please do not forget that we are still trying to support macOS versions
(and possibly OSX versions) that are rather old and cannot use a newer TclTk.
Or there is some signing/notarization issue (eg Apple refusing to notarize
binaries that also contain 32bit intel code).
The point is: it is not obviously simple to "just switch to the latest and
greatest" if we want to keep our obsolescence doctrine.
