The following does not parse in 1.1a1
proc foo {a b}{
return
}
"extra character after curly brace" (or some such message).
It was due to there being no space between the "}{". Is this a Tcl
limitation?

Ahhh users... what can you do?
A not-so-uncommon programming error is to write a for loop that loops
forever. Is there any mechanism to force the interpreter to stop
evaluating? Can I force an error to be thrown some how?
I'm using 1.1a1 but am working on upgrading the latest-greatest.
Thanks
Yep, this is the standard behaviour of Tcl 8.0 and earlier.
cxh@maury 4% cat /tmp/t.tcl
proc foo {a b}{
return
}
cxh@maury 5% tclsh
% set tcl_version
8.0
% source /tmp/t.tcl
extra characters after close-brace

That does not work in Tclsh8.0 either. The problem is that the
parser needs to see a space after the } (meaning }{ is not valid).
