Really? From Tkinter.py it looks to me like it should be equivalent:
def mainloop(n=0):
"""Run the main loop of Tcl."""
_default_root.tk.mainloop(n)
(...snip...)
class Tk(Misc, Wm):
"""Toplevel widget of Tk which represents mostly the main window
of an appliation. It has an associated Tcl interpreter."""
_w = '.'
def __init__(self, screenName=None, baseName=None, className='Tk'):
global _default_root
(...snip...)
if _support_default_root and not _default_root:
_default_root = self
so _default_root is the Tk() instance. Unfortunately this does not explain
what is going wrong in the example.
